#ChangeTheDogma! #TLRpower! @jkagan1.bsky.social@danielhfisch.bsky.social &co show @nature.com that TRAM, so far believed to control endosomal TLR4 signaling & interferon #IFN production, is essential to release the #myddosome from #TIRAP & the plasma membrane allowing full NFkB signaling!
WE'RE HIRING! Thanks to some recent successes with NIH funding, we're seeking two new postdoctoral scholars to join our team. See below for details.
Please share widely and feel free to reach out with any questions!
Recruiting a postdoc to join my lab at @lshtm.bsky.social to work in an MRC porgramme grant funded project to dissect the gut colonziation by Klebsiella. In vivo and in vitro models, and new approaches to identify Klebsiella factors involved. jobs.lshtm.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx...
