Victor is a great follow

This study on response to Omicron after #SARSCoV2 vaccination provides some optimism re “original antigenic sin” biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

TLDR: although response to Omicron dominated by preexisting B-cells, antibodies from these cells better at 6 months than 1 month.

All thanks to UC San Diego UC San Diego Health— where you are lifted by a unmatched tradition of interdisciplinary research, great patient care programs, dynamic surrounding research institutes, beaches, palm trees 🌴, fish tacos 🐟 🌮 and above all, the most amazing students and trainees

Seeing some discussion about this publication with a pretty catastrophic failure to understand/communicate the limitations of the work, so here's my best attempt at clarifying it 🧵

Nice work Isaak Quast ! That’s a great graphic about the memory B cell re-recruitment 🙏🏼

Everybody keeps talking about antibody-escaping variants…
Nice work from Andrew Godking is showing how magnitude of T cell response against SARS-CoV2 structural proteins (M,NP and Spike) correlates with protection against COVID-19 more than Ab. Go T cells nature.com/articles/s4146…

Carolyn Bertozzi – awarded the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry – has taken click chemistry to a new dimension and started utilising it in living organisms. Her bioorthogonal reactions take place without disrupting the normal chemistry of the cell.

Two Nobel prizes for Barry Sharpless! Extraordinary! And well deserved. Congrats to our neighbors down the street Scripps Research !

As usual, Eric Topol beat us to tweeting about our paper. 😂

Thanks @PC_immuno !

I swear I wouldn’t use actually twice in once sentence when writing a manuscript
