- Reposted by Casanova-Acebes LabCalling all lung immunology enthusiasts 🫁 I’m excited to share this project where we designed and optimised a spectral cytometry platform to study immune responses in the mouse lung at steady-state and during viral infection. We hope this will be a useful resource for the field! Link below 👇

- Reposted by Casanova-Acebes LabToday, we see the fruit of 5+ years of teamwork. We have built a map of the neutrophil compartment (mostly in mice - but also humans). It provides a biological structure that focuses on a single immune cell lineage to discover the many ways in which neutrophils "interpret" physiology.
