Excited to share Wendy Le Mouëllic’s PhD work, now published in @pnas.org!
It reveals that M. tuberculosis depends on inorganic sulfate import to survive inside host cells—fueling essential processes such as redox balance and stress resistance.
Huge congrats to Wendy & colleagues!

We are looking to hire post-docs to work on T cell responses to M. tuberculosis infection using murine and NHP models. If you know T cells and wanna work on the top global infectious killer check us out. BSL3 experience not required. The NIH intramural program in Bethesda MD is an amazing place!

In @cp-cellrepmed.bsky.social, IPBS researchers propose a treatment based on optimized antibodies that, in mice, increases the proportion of HEV blood vessels and facilitates killer cell entry into tumors.
These molecules are currently in clinical trials ⤵️
