Have a group project on your syllabus this semester? It's great for teaching collaboration, but it can also be ripe with racism and terrible outcomes for students of color if you don't sufficiently support groups. Learn from my mistakes (and research) 🧵

I am happy to share our latest review article on bile acids and the microbiota modulating host immunity. Great effort by Mike Lee, together with Sean-Paul Nuccio, Ipsita Mohanty, Lee Hagey, @Pdorrestein1, and @theChuLab. Here is a link with the full text: rdcu.be/dNQbW

Biggest paper yet from the lab out now in @ImmunityCP! It is a massive #openscience resource on #tissueTregs, and what makes #Tregs tick in the #tissues. Spoiler-alert: Tissue Tregs are really different from what we all thought. 🧵 1/21 sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

.@avayala14 et al @theChuLab (hubs.ly/Q02c_YDf0) revealed that commensal bacteria, such as B. fragilis, elicit a subtle yet essential type I IFN response dominated by IFNβ, termed the tonic IFN response, in the intestine. Insights by @CadwellLab: hubs.ly/Q02c_S7b0
