There aren’t many things worse one can imagine than the loss of a child.

But the loss of a child to a vaccine preventable disease is a pain no parent or family should ever have to bear.

Sowing distrust about vaccines, arguably the greatest public health success of all time, is pure evil.

I’ve just learned a wonderful news:
I was awarded the #Prix Olga Sain from La #Ligue contre le #cancer.
I am so grateful to colleagues, collaborators, mentors whose support made this possible.
And to my incredible team #Passarolab, the driving force&the future of what we’ll accomplish together!

We’re recruiting a Research Engineer in #bioengineering

Join a dynamic multi-institute environment at @upcite.bsky.social to support cutting-edge work in #microfluidics #organoids & tissue #manufacture

Apply👇🏻 if you’re excited about interdisciplinary collaborative science🔬🧪⚗️🧑‍🔬

IT'S HAPPENING! 💥 I'm psyched to launch the collaboration between @qedscience.bsky.social & @openrxiv.bsky.social @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social! Preprint + q.e.d = your science is out there, and anyone can appreciate it. Let's care about making discoveries, and not on “getting published” (1/3) 👇

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT📣: I haven’t been this excited to be part of something new in 15 years… Thrilled to reveal the passion project I’ve been working on for the past year and a half!🙀🥳 (thread 👇)

Congrats Dinis!

Thank you Mark, writing was mostly a pain, but filming was a lot of fun!

Our Jove video is finally out! Watch us try our best to look natural while reading the script 🤭

The Ig Nobels are science’s most lighthearted event. This year is ‘not typical’ Amid Trump research cuts, visa restrictions, and international conflicts, some winners sit out the celebration of whimsical science

The 2025 Ig Nobel-winning research was as wacky as ever. But wars, visa restrictions, Trump's border and research policies, and even an all-too-frequent airplane incident kept nearly half the winning teams from traveling to Boston @science.org www.science.org/content/arti...

Pleased to announce the start of the Institut Cochin Foundation !

On September 18th at 6 p.m., upon registration come or connect to learn about the fantastic research done at the Institut Cochin @institutcochin.bsky.social , meet the people that do it and call for donations!

Who am I to be mentoring someone?

I was just a first-year graduate student who still regularly sought guidance myself; what advice could I have to offer?

#FluorescenceFriday After a wonderful summer at the beach, what could be better than discovering a new microscope on the facility to keep your spirits high?
Just a few more days until you can image your #organoids cleared or in vivo!

Fabulous EHA/FASEB joint session on Immune System and Microenvironment this morning!

Big thank you to #EHA for their partnership!!!

#HEMSRC

… and I’ve found my favorite can at the Tree House brewery 🙌🏻 Lovely spot!

Thanks again to @juliamaxson.bsky.social & Sergei Doulatov for inviting me and #EHA for sposoring an exciting joint session with @faseborg.bsky.social on the #microenvironment shaping normal and malignant #hematopoiesis

✈️Just returned from #FASEB #HMSRC, so many thought provoking data!

Grateful for the chance to spotlight new #organoid technologies & the often overlooked role of the #microenvironment

Proud to be part of a community pushing the boundaries of understanding #leukemia from #clone to #context

A postnatal molecular switch drives activity-dependent maturation of parvalbumin interneurons Neuronal activity triggers PGC-1α-mediated transcriptional programs that drive the late maturation of PV+ interneurons, essential for cortical circuit function. PGC-1α partners with ERRγ and Mef2c to ...

1/10 Our latest research, led by Monika Moissidis, identifies a mechanism regulating the maturation of PV interneurons in the #cortex. This is the story @cellcellpress.bsky.social www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... ⬇︎ thread @devneuro.bsky.social @kingsioppn.bsky.social

Who said research was boring?
At #passarolab @institutcochin.bsky.social même une visite ministérielle devient un moment de bonne humeur 😄 Merci pour cette belle discussion sur #ouverture #mobilité & #integration … dans un labo où la diversité internationale est déjà une réalité au quotidien 🌍

Congratulations @celinephilippe.bsky.social !!!

My favorite sessions are yet to come:

Looking forward to Ralf Adams and Christa Maes lectures in just 1h ⏳ & getting ready for my meet-the-expert session 🤓 on high resolution 3D #imaging of #bone

Thank you #ECTS for the invitation!

Our May issue is here! rupress.org/jem/issue/22...
Cleary et al. (doi.org/10.1084/jem....) developed a new intravital technique for imaging pulmonary lymphatics. The cover depicts a 3D projection of a whole lung lobe with lymphatics (purple) and smooth muscle (white) labeled.

When politics interfer with science, catastrophe often follow.
