Delighted to change Assistant to Associate today!! Can't believe how lucky I am to work at an amazing place, with incredible mentors, super talented trainees, & tons of friends and collaborators on my favorite placenta projects!! I may need to take an extra long Labor Day weekend to celebrate 🥂
I am honored to be on this week's Immunology Podcast to discuss placental tolerance & immunity in pregnancy!
Check out our latest episode!

Dr. Tamara Tilburgs (@ttilburgs.bsky.social) from @cincychildrens.bsky.social talks about the mechanisms of immune tolerance during pregnancy!

Listen now: bit.ly/3H7ZM8H
Very excited to be on the Immunology Podcast!
We can't wait to chat with Dr. Tamara Tilburgs (@ttilburgs.bsky.social) from @cincychildrens.bsky.social next week!

Her research focuses on #ImmuneTolerance during pregnancy. Learn more: bit.ly/3GWu0eI
Delighted with our new publication showing how natural microbial exposure of pregnant mice enhances T cell diversity and residency at the maternal-fetal interface and resembles human decidual immune populations with increased fidelity.

Thanks, Stephen!!
Congrats Nina, Pietro and @ttilburgs.bsky.social @cincyresearch.bsky.social
Granulysin-high decidual NK cells in macaques and humans share signatures of immune defense

Delighted with my labs new publication on how decidual NK cells utilize the anti-microbial peptide granulysin for immune defense of placental tissues! ❤️
Great news to start my day!! ✨️🥂✨️
Incredible story! Thank you for highlighting this one ❤️
Another story you can find in my book, Uncredited: Women’s Overlooked, Misattributed, and Stolen Work, is that of Mary Papanicolaou:

Congratulations Nathan and Team!! Very cool paper!!
New in STM, check out our integrative bulk & single-cell long-read analysis to discover and test new therapies in leukemia. We developed OncoSplice, to define new splicing defined subtypes and predict regulators. PRMT5 inhibition partially rescued mis-splicing & inhibited leukemic growth. More soon!
Splicing regulatory dynamics for precision analysis and treatment of heterogeneous leukemias
Broad dysregulated splicing in AML partially phenocopies splicing factor mutations, is prognostic, and can be pharmacologically reversed.

Sooooo true... 🤣🤣🤣

Can't wait to read this one! Congratulations Krish & Team!!

Congratulations Krish!!
To keep me sane & centered, I made and fussed over this big clay pot last night! This morning, I feel refreshed and ready to focus on science! I think I may need more of this for a while...
We should walk out every Friday until things are back to normal!
Congratulations Liza & team!!! Can't wait to read this one!
In extremely premature infants, immune cell trajectories are distinct from those of full-term infants over the first 60 days of life

@labwaggoner.bsky.social @cincyresearch.bsky.social are the first to describe how liver protein prothrombin prevents fatal immunopathology during chronic virus infection in mice. buff.ly/A6szRmm
Thanks for sharing this data, Jeremy! Looks absolutely terrifying to me...
Extending my grant update this morning. Here are data limited to new and competitive renewal applications.

Can anyone please sue them for this and open the federal register? Our R01 scored a 10th percentile and should have gone through council in January... It is insanely stressful to run a lab these days...
