Defining the balance between optimal immunity and immunopathology in influenza virus infection dlvr.it/T6LNtD

Check out our study on: Seasonal flu vaccines prior to the 2009 pandemic in children to assess antibody correlates of protection. Great collaborations between Janice Haogao Gu and Carolyn Cohen, leveraging RCT of Ben Cowling Gabriel Leung and systems serology Amy Chung

Congratulations to Patricia Illing, recipient of the 2018 #MichelsonPrizes , on your publication in Nature Communications!

Huge congratulations Tejas on your first 1st author paper 🎉🎉🎉

📢Proud of Tejas Menon his first author paper published in Nature Communications, identifying & characterising 9 #influenzaB CD8 T cell epitopes. Strikingly elderly individuals had no exhaustion & excellent memory phenotypes!🧵⬇️ Kedzierska Lab Doherty Institute go.unimelb.edu.au/qgd8

Happy to see my first paper published in Nature Communications! A big thanks to everyone who contributed and funded the study! Learn more in our thread! ⬇️

Delighted to see this published. It's been a long, long journey but still relevant. Dissecting underlying mechanisms of rare genetic immunodeficiencies in the context of infectious diseases is always valuable; that's what we do here for DOCK2-deficiency.

Im honoured to receive the Viruses Early Career Investigator Award today and for the opportunity to present our work at the Viruses MDPI 2024 'A World of Viruses' Conference in #Barcelona .

The second paper from my PhD is out in Clinical & Translational Immunology! We explored the phenotype and effector functions of Vδ1 and Vδ2 T cells within ART-treated HIV.

Huge thanks to Jennifer Juno Wen Shi Lee Stephen Kent & Kathleen for all their support!

I am working on updating the influenza chapter in Fields Virology with Peter Palese, which also means I type 'influenza' into PubMed and than look at all titles published since the beginning of 2019. This is the 'most interesting' so far.
