These are the most challenging times for early-career scientists and engineers.

My team is doing its bit to help by maintaining and even expanding our database of funding opportunities for early-career researchers.

We found 437 of them.

Congratulations Baumgarth Lab

@Nature Immunology paper out today

Baumgarth Lab postdoc Antonio Cembellin Prieto is 1st author!

This research shows how B cells use the neurotransmitter acetylcholine to modulate early lung antiviral inflammatory responses

Paper here
www.nature.com/articles/s41...
B cells modulate lung antiviral inflammatory responses via the neurotransmitter acetylcholine - Nature Immunology
Cembellin-Prieto and colleagues find that B cells in the lung are capable of producing acetylcholine and that these regulate early macrophage activation and control influenza virus replication.

I got the news this morning on two COVID related grants that were being terminated because its no longer seen as a research priority by Health and Human Services. My people have been given their notice. I have no words to express my feelings.

CDC is pulling back $11B in Covid funding sent to health departments across the U.S.
“Now that the pandemic is over, the grants and cooperative agreements are no longer necessary," federal health authorities wrote to funding recipients this week.

More than ever, researchers need to explain how they use taxpayer money to provide tangible benefits.

I'll start: My lab has developed a completely novel way to make cellular therapies a lot more effective. Our approach shows promising results in pancreatic, ovarian and lung cancer.
