Yet another dull day in the boring life of some research scientists. Epic end of conference party at #mpm2024. If your parties are not like this you are in the wrong field and should study parasites!

After a week of hiking in the Swiss Alps, I came back to this amazing news. I am thrilled and honored to have been elected as an EMBO member this year. I will do my best to give it back.

We are so lucky at #BSP2024 to have our Day 2 beginning with our plenary speaker, Prof Sir Adrian Hill of @JennerInstitute at @UniofOxford who is telling us about "Malaria vaccines - at last!"!

Ever pondered how the order of VSG expression is determined?🤔 Wonder no more! 🧬
Cat Gadelha retweeted
Prof Papavasiliou tells us now about the extremely discriminatory antibody response in response to a T. brucei infection. In VSG2 expression, an alteration to an epitope at the Ca++ pocket vicinity drastically alters the response repertoire. More at sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Cat Gadelha retweeted
Prof Papavasiliou tells us about the immune response to T. brucei infection. Initially, there is a strong plasma-blast response (~4 dpi in mice) & these plasma cells were sorted & sequenced to examine heavy & light chain gene expression: cell.com/cell-reports/pdf/S2…

And now from #BSP2024 session "Antigenic variation 1", we have Prof Dr Nina Papavasiliou of @DKFZ telling us about "Antigenic variation at the macro & micro scale: how the African #trypanosome coat structure helps it evade a highly diverse immune response."

Did you know that #trypanosoma vivax cytoadheres to the vasculature?
And that different trypanosomes species cause different alterations in the blood vessels?

The resolved cell spatial proteomes of not one but two #Trypanosoma spp. in two different life stages each! Wonderful to have been involved in this project led by @MacGregor_Lab, and a phenomenal achievement by Nicola Moloney, the star of this show.
