I am very excited to see this in print!

New work from our lab defines an interferon-induced memory B cell subset during chronic viral infection.

An awesome effort by Lucy Cooper @coopernatant & supported by our generous lab members & collaborators

Our B cell Keystone (otherwise known as B-cellapalooza 2026!) deadlines coming up...
- November 13 for short talk abstracts and scholarships.

Looking forward to being back at OG Keystone (and visiting San Diego beforehand!)

Thank you to the organisers for a fantastically run program showcasing the talented researchers we have!

Great to see this out! Following on from our earlier work revealing DOT1L was essential for humoral responses, here we determine the importance of H3K79me2 at multiple stages of B cell biology
👏 to Liam for tenaciously driving this study
👏 to collabs @sjturn + those not on X

It's great to see this out today! A tour de de force by @MasatoOgishi Koji Kitaoka, @casanova_lab, @Tangye_Lab + others...

Also stoked to contribute unpublished recall response data from my postdoc a very long time ago 🙂

1/ We report @ImmunityCP that the PD-1:PD-L1 axis promotes the development of B-cell memory and antibody responses in mice and humans. To our surprise, the pro-B-cell effect of PD-1 and PD-L1 is, at least partially, mediated in a B-cell-intrinsic manner. cell.com/immunity/abstr…
