“Immotile cilia mechanically sense the direction of fluid flow for left-right determination” published in #Science #AAAS. We answered the question that "How the embryo senses nodal flow and why only the L-side cilia can respond." Let me guide you! 1/n https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abq8148
I'm a researcher in Mexico studying immunology. Our lab specializes in newborn immunology & T cell biology. Our approach is cellular and systems immunology.

#Introduction take 2:
I am an #immunoengineer at MIT who leads a passionate team of interdisciplinary researchers working to solve the mysterious connections between #InfectiousDiseases and chronic illness. I focus on #Lyme Disease, why some people go on to get Chronic Lyme and why that looks so much like long COVID with a mission to develop predictive diagnostics. I'm obsessed with mucosal #immunology, sex differences in immune responses to infectious disease, and the health of this planet.

A very specific commission that I requested from https://madalenaparreira.com for a review of Dan Davis' "The Compatibility Gene" in the now defunct magazine Lab Times.
Beautiful ancient glass. A 2000 year-old Roman mosaic glass bowl. On display at the V&A Museum. 📷 my own.
Since the 1960s, this glass bowl has been thought to be of more recent date, possibly 19th century. Recent scientific analysis has helped reattribute it to the Roman period. Read more: https://collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O2002/bowl-unknown

Per @josephmenn Elon Musk personally ordered Twitter to ban antifascist researcher Chad Loder https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/01/04/mudge-finds-a-new-job/ As I reported, Loder's open-source investigations identified multiple Capitol rioters and were cited in a criminal complaint against a violent Proud Boy but the same work infuriated far-right activists Musk admires, Andy Ngo and Chaya Raichik https://theintercept.com/2021/11/10/proud-boys-antifascist-tweet-chad-loder-court/

“In this setting, patients are polymorphic, and the disease is heterogeneous,” Dr. Sharma explained. “We must generate hypotheses from the clinical data sets…take those data back to the laboratory, and in the appropriate immunocompetent model, test our hypotheses to understand deeper mechanisms that can lead to the next generation of clinical studies.”
#Chondro/osteoclasts and mast cells are cells of interest in the cartilage and bone destruction of joints affected by rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Both are major cellular components of the vascular synovial pannus proliferation characteristic of this disease. Chondroclasts degrade calcified cartilage and osteoclasts degrade bone tissue."
Wow! Pubmed will start indexing #preprints of NIH-funded research starting early this year! HT @ASAPbio
I've worked on all of science, from B cells to T cells.
