Wow. Such an honor to receive the #SITC2024 Presidential Award. Congratulations to all the awardees tonight on awesome science, and thank you to the meeting organizers! 👩🔬🎉
What a week with two publications from our lab! Spatial microniches of IL-2 drive lung migratory Th2 cells to allergens in NI & a review on Systems Immunology Approaches to studying T cells in npj Systems Biology. nature.com/articles/s4159…
I wrote a review about the key sequencing-based methods to investigate epigenetic and transcriptomic regulation of T cells in disease. A (hopefully) useful read to start if you have interested in these methods but aren't sure where to start. rdcu.be/dWsTP
Go Catherine!!!
Immune checkpoint blockade plus a vaccine including self-amplifying mRNA-encoded neoantigens derived from common oncogenic driver mutations was safe and elicited neoantigen-specific T cell responses in patients with advanced solid tumors #CancerVaccine nature.com/articles/s4159…
Our @Pitt_PMI students represented today for the 3 min thesis competition! @CatMPhelps @HyeMiKim0314 took home first place in the competition (Catherine from @MeiselLab) and people’s choice award (Hye Mi from Bruno Lab). Way to go! #WomenInScience
Talking about 3D chromatin and T cell exhaustion at #TRCCC2024
Covid may have kept me from this years #pittimm2023 retreat but @poholeklab was representing! Congrats to @aaron_null_yang and Kun He on 2nd and 1st place poster awards! #ProudPI
Fun #run at the #PittImm23 retreat with @TheRobZhang and @aaron_null_yang ! #microbiome #slay
My student Yibo Zheng from Tsinghua University will present on Blimp-1 in lung ILC2s in allergic asthma. Join @HBorgesdaSilva and me for Hyper Airways Sunday at 10:15am. #AAI2023

Running our little hearts out.
Having a great time at #pittimm2022 #microbiome #andywarholart
I’m excited to see some of my work from my past life published this week in Nature Medicine! Congrats to the team at Gritstone Bio for all their hard work. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Training the next generation of immunologists is one of the best parts of being a PI. Congrats to our 2 summer students, Amanda and Nicole on their amazing work on epigenetics in T cells. Big thanks to @Pitt_PMI PhD students @aaron_null_yang & @rhodesf0rd for excellent mentoring!
Incredible thanks to @aaron_null_yang for finally crossing this one off my to do list and making us a lab website! poholeklab.com
Congrats to @rhodesf0rd on her first place win in the poster session for this years #pittimm2021 retreat! #proudPI of our small but mighty lab! @aaron_null_yang and (not on Twitter) Kun He
