Our latest manuscript on #eosinophils in the #influenza breakthrough infection model. What started as an unexpected observation in flow cytometry data for alveolar macrophages was a source of fun for many years now in the lab. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41190814/
Transient lung eosinophilia during breakthrough influenza infection in vaccinated mice is associated with protective and balanced Type 1/2 immune responses - PubMed
Our findings reveal that eosinophilic recruitment during influenza breakthrough infection is non-pathological and represents a balanced immune response, distinct from highly inflammatory environments seen in primary influenza infection or allergic sensitization. We observed eosinophil enrichment in …

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

We now have highly potent A35 human mAbs, in vitro and in vivo. They are protective both before and after mouse infection.

Science has already saved countless lives and will save many more if we let it. Hearing firsthand from patients whose lives have been saved by medical research (tinyurl.com/m65339fh) shows how vital this funding is, even for those lucky enough not to have needed it yet.
