@gpollara @JExpMed Intriguing. In an earlier postdoc position I had a look at #DendriticCells, and especially the #cDC1 were abundant, but seemed to be just sitting in the inflammatory environment, doing little. One of the very abundant cytokines: #IL6

We also looked at the effect of that and other #cytokines, but mostly on #Tcells, among others due to the low abundance of cDC1 in HC blood to be able to do many in vitro experiments.

Hey there! I'm an Assistant Professor at #UCLA studying mouse and human #innateimmunity using #systemsimmunology and #crispr to find new targets for chronic viral infections, #T2D and #cancer. I mainly focus on #type1 immune responses including #NKcells #cDC1 and #ILC1. I started #earlycareerimmunology in 2021 to highlight underrepresented scientists early in their career. I'm here to post about #science, #art, #travel, #cat photos, and congratulate you on your wins 🥳🎉.
