Humbled to assist with SHM-seq method, led by Britta and @mssanjavickovic : measuring histology, bacterial abundance and host gene expression in the same tissue. Batteries not included, but it does come with a tailored taxonomic classification ML model!
With cell line engineering and machine learning, we recovered >300,000 ligands for immune surface proteins and developed CAPTAn. The effort uncovered new antigens from SARS-Cov-2 and gut microbes, more puzzle pieces to understand our interactions with them tinyurl.com/captn23
Bacteria send messages from mothers to infants during pregnancy, without making the journey themselves. Genes are passed to related species, preparing them to consume milk sugars soon after birth. Study led by Karolina S. Jabbar & @tvatanen@TheXavierLab mstrazar.github.io/immunology/mic…
