I just found my read of the day:

It makes so much sense to me that differentiation pathways in T cells(and biological processes i general) are much more flexible than currently depicted in literature! Why would a cell be fully stuck in one state with no way to return? HIgh time for studies like this to correct our current view on #immunology #memory #T cell #differentiation #gene regulation. So i look forward to read it!
Happy New Year 2023!

Flore Castellan & Naoki Irie set up a transgenic mouse model to specifically deplete maternal cells in neonates. Subsequent immunophenotyping reveals that this depletion leads to early activation of splenic T and natural killer cells:

The painting features even more bottles with paper wrappers or paper pluggers. Have a look yourself. #PaperHistory
As this room is full of papers, almanacs glued on the wall, old paper books lying around, a broadside glued on the window shutter, another broadside glued to the wall storing also letters or comments made on paper sheets, I sense this paper re-usage to protect liquids in bottles was a common thing? Historians of early modern apothecaries, do you know more? #histodons

"The success rate of proposals led by Asian scientists is about 20 percent below the overall rate — a disparity that has persisted for two decades and runs counter to the common narrative that Asian Americans dominate the sciences and engineering fields in the United States."

In Japanese Buddhist cosmology Gakido is a parallel realm, said to be one of the four unhappy rebirths. In this barren & inhospitable wasteland, a #yokai spirit known as gaki lives in terrible torment & suffering. As punishment for sins in a past life they wander this awful place, eternally hungry & thirsty. Even if they eat they'll never feel satisfied. During obon some Buddhist traditions perform ceremonies to ease the suffering of gaki.

Hi folks! In case you're not aware, @WHO has an informational YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC07-dOwgza1IguKA86jqxNA I was just re-watching this October video of @mvankerkhove talking about the XBB recombinant, which was discussed at yesterday's presser as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfwJdi1tuys
'Western health officials say privately that the checks on travellers have mostly been introduced to avert potential variants spreading undetected but that the current measures are not justified by any existing threat. One senior European official, who declined to be named, said it was a “political” decision, citing “governments that want to be seen as protecting their own people”.

On #scienceTwitter, my favourite thing were reading and, on rare occasions, writing "paper/preprint threads". From the researchers I followed and through the #Twitter algorithm, this became my most important source for new #research.
While people start to do the same on #Mastodon, I have the feeling that I miss important work bc no algorithm "saves" it for me if I don't watch my timeline constantly.
Two simple solutions would be: a commonly accepted hashtag that everybody uses when writing "paper threads" or a [...] @ a.gup.pe group with a similar adaptation rate.
#Question 1: is there already a mechanism for this that I missed?
#Question 2: What hashtag or group name?
I saw #TootPrint before. Maybe #PaperInAToot? #PaperInAPost? #PaperInAThread? #PaperPost? #MastoPrint?
Suggestions and boosts, please, we need reach for this! 🤓

we have now added our first #neutrophil dataset to ImmPRes. What effect does hypoxia have on neutrophils when they're activated with LPS? and what happens …
