Excited to share our new paper from the @Jamequistlab, describing the role of thymic interferons in T cell selection, out now in @SciImmunology. science.org/doi/10.1126/scii…. Why are interferons, molecules protective against viral infections, produced in the thymus? 1/n
Sterile production of interferons in the thymus affects T cell repertoire selection

Sterile production of interferons in the thymus affects T cell repertoire selection

IFN shapes the thymic microenvironment by promoting distinct APC responses and is required for selection of a diverse, self-tolerant TCR repertoire.

Our thymic selection 'crash course' is out now in @NatRevImmunol! This is such an exciting time in the thymus field & it was a privilege to put our spin on the bigger picture of what's going on in our favorite lymphoid organ! Thanks to the NRI team for making it all possible!

Sitting in the lunch area at lab and @tori_osinski dropped off extra cucumbers from her garden and now I’m just watching passersby react with such joy to free cucumbers. 😆

We are excited to share a preprint of our most recent study spearheaded by Tal and Yael identifying thymic endocrine and microfold cells and providing their detailed molecular, developmental and functional characterization - researchsquare.com/article/r…

Thymic microfold and endocrine cells regulate thymus homeostasis and self-tolerance

Thymic epithelial cells (TEC) play an indispensable role in the development and selection of immunocompetent, yet self-tolerant T cells. To provide further insights into TEC functional and developm...

Great work from @HonzaDobes87 and @TheAbramsonLab describing that AIRE expressing ILC3s from the lymph nodes could be responsible for development of candidiasis in APS-1 patients. Congratulations! nature.com/articles/s41590-0…
