The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 was divided, one half awarded to David Baker "for computational protein design", the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper "for protein structure pr...
🤓 I really liked scitwitter for helping to discover new (and missed) publications and ideas. Hopefully this place will catch up!
I’m curious about how strong TCR signals (low epitope load-high affinity/high epitope load-mid affinity) relate to T cell fate. Anyone have new publications (or opinions!!) to share on that topic? #Immunosky
Oh! I guess this! Thanks to @rodrahimi.bsky.socialgo.bsky.app/PY5tCas

Thanks for the rec. I will check it out!
Anyone in my orbit read fantasy? I am reaching the end of Robin Hobb’s Realm of Elderlings and will desperately miss her characters. Any rebound reading recommendations?

Our new publication led by Dr Tara Reid uncovers proteins in Treponema pallium that are targets of CD4 T cells. Useful information towards improved prevention and treatment of syphilis. academic.oup.com/jid/advance-...
Little is known about the targets of effector T cells during human syphilis. Herein we show that Treponema pallidum infection elicits antigen-specific CD4+
