Very pleased to share the first publication from the Pardy lab, exploring our growing understanding of how intestinal epithelial cells contribute to host défense! A big congratulations to Thomas and Ines for their work putting this together!!
Intestinal epithelial cells form a key barrier between the #gut and the rest of the body, but what role do they play in #immunity? Find out in "Immunity at the edge: cell-intrinsic roles for intestinal epithelial cells in host immunity" @RyanPardy2

25 years later. Remember Joe? He’s actually CBC colleague Jeff Douglas.

He’s back with an updated Canadian rant.

This was a really cool moment! Giving a talk at an event I attended as a grad student. Grateful for the opportunity, thank you again for having me @MIM_immuno !!
It's our first MIM happy hour of the semester! For our very first talk, @RyanPardy2 from @inrsciences will talk about mechanisms of enteric immunity

Pour notre toute première présentation des 5 à 7 de MIM du semestre, Ryan Pardy va parler des mécanismes d'immunité entérique

Science knows it doesn't know everything; otherwise, it'd stop…

But just because science doesn't know everything doesn't mean you can fill in the gaps with whatever fairy tale most appeals to you.

VERY excited to share my MSc work @jrfmricher lab! Here, we show that the inflammatory milieu induced during chronic viral infection impacts thymic composition, leading to the emergence and development of B cells in the thymus! W/@MelicharLab @LabWaggoner onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/im…

Past time to share some exciting news - my postdoc paper has been published in @PLOSPathogens! IFNg is important during #Cryptosporidium infection…but how?

Replying to @RyanPardy2
By treating IFNg KO mice with IFNg, we showed that it took 24h to see a reduction in parasite burden. Crypto’s life cycle lasts 12h so this suggests IFNg acts on uninfected cells to limit dissemination within the host

Replying to @RyanPardy2
This was further supported with ALI organoids, in which pre-incubation with IFNg was sufficient to limit Crypto’s ability to replicate.

Thanks as ever to everyone at Penn for your help and support - looking forward to following up on this in the Pardy lab!!
