I'm thrilled to share I’ve been awarded a @erc.europa.eu starting grant! #ERCStG

#fertiliMMUNE will uncover how the immune and reproductive systems communicate, with the aim to improve fertility outcomes.

I'm incredibly thankful to my amazing lab, collaborators, peers & ERC for their support!

Super interesting work on pDC to cDC transition regulated by TNF and type I IFN!

Would be curious to know how biological sex affects this, given our previous findings on masculinizing hormone therapy regulating pDC/IFN-I and TNF www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This year our #SystemsImmunologyLab hosted a #UniStemDay workshop @lundstem.bsky.social, a European initiative to engage high school students in #science!

We showed how #bioinformatics can identify DNA sequences and help investigate human immunity.

Great job from students & effort from the lab!
