May's featured article in our exchange with @discovimmunol.bsky.social reveals altered spatial distribution of ILCs in #endometriosis and suggests the primary role of uterine ILC3 may be endometrial repair and regeneration.
Our @immunolcellbiol.bsky.social "Highlights of 2024: Germinal Centers" is now out. Led by Theresa Pankhurst, we discuss some (there's never enough space for all!) neat germinal centre papers that were published in 2024, and whose findings are moving the field forward. doi.org/10.1111/imcb...
For this month's article exchange with @immunolcellbiol.bsky.social we're highlighting "Notch dependent chromatin remodelling enables Gata3 binding and drives lineage specific CD8+ T cell function."
A study on how Notch signalling primes antiviral CD8+ T cell responses.

A summary of the emerging regulatory and effector roles of #gdTcells in #sepsis.
And it may also contain a few Taylor Swift references. More than 50 in fact.
Thank you so much @immunolcellbiol.bsky.social for playing along!
From pipettes to playdates! @rhea-longley.bsky.social et al. share challenges and successes from establishing a parent support group in a research setting.
Coinciding with #InternationalWomensDay, this special feature explores persistent barriers from gender pay gaps to underrepresentation in leadership and global strategies for change, not only for women but all marginalised groups in healthcare and STEMM.
In this graphic, the words diversity, equity and inclusion are shown above cartoons of five scientists/healthcare professionals. Below are cartoon antibodies, and the words healthcare and stem.
Our new special feature is out now! From reflections on starting a parents group for researchers to a case study on Indigenous student engagement in science, this special feature amplifies intersectional discussions on diversity, equity, and inclusion in healthcare and STEMM. bit.ly/41JpXKa
This article from our upcoming special feature on Advancing Equity and Inclusion in Healthcare highlights the work of Immunologists for Gender Equity (IgEquity), a trainee-led organisation at @immunox.bsky.social. #InternationalWomensDay
Our paper is finally out in @immunolcellbiol.bsky.social, think that transcription factor expression is all that? Well not if the genome is not prepared in a way to allow binding: here is a short π§΅1/

Obesity is associated with increased susceptibility to infection, which may be due to obesity-induced immune dysregulation. The latest article exchange highlight from @discovimmunol.bsky.social looks at dendritic cell responses to Sendai Virus in a mouse model of diet-induced obesity.
Self-reactive B cells are increased in all major stages of peripheral development in SjΓΆgren's disease. This study from Lee et al. suggests that depleting self-reactive B cells based on B cell receptor specificity would be more efficient than targeting developmental stage in SjΓΆgren's disease.

Also, the submission and editorial experience with @immunolcellbiol.bsky.social was fantastic, highly efficient, very professional, and yes I am an #AusNZSocImmunol member, but if you are looking for somewhere to publish #immunologyiscool work, can't recommend highly enough.
Thanks for the shout out @sjturn.bsky.social β looking forward to seeing your lab's new paper out soon!
So many good reasons to publish in ICB!
