We're back with another Trainee Spotlight, this time featuring Ariadna Soto, a postdoc in the Hinterleitner Lab (@rh-lab.bsky.social) investigating how non-pathogenic gut protozoa shape immune responses in IBD and other gastrointestinal diseases. www.immunology.pitt.edu/news/trainee...
❓What should we answer next? Comment below with your immunology-related questions!
In our latest Staff Spotlight, meet Nicole Brandon, Senior Flow Cytometry Technician in the Unified Flow Core. Learn about her role and the surprising synchronicity between knitting/crochet and computer science 🧶💻 www.immunology.pitt.edu/news/staff-s...
Ever wondered why a mosquito bite itches? 🦟 Mary Cundiff, postdoc in Jishnu Das's lab has answers in the first article of our new series, Ask an Immunologist, in which grad students and postdocs answer your immunology questions. www.immunology.pitt.edu/news/ask-imm...
New from Jishnu Das's lab, out today in @cellpress.bsky.social Cell Systems: A perspective on how graph-based machine learning is poised to transform how we study and understand the immune system. Read more: www.immunology.pitt.edu/news/graph-b...
