New preprint from the lab! Lactate, a tumor-derived metabolite, blocks B cells from entering tumors and forming tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs). Congratulations Victoire Boulat - in a great collaboration with Anita Grigoriadis! tinyurl.com/3vvk9kec #Immunology #TLS #CancerMetabolism #Bcells

Want to see immune cells in 3D? We’ve published a protocol for 5-plex 3D imaging of whole lymph nodes, revealing germinal centers at single-cell resolution. So many possibilities ahead! Congratulations Victoire Boulat!
