So excited to share my last project in the @MostowyLab! ZF macrophages are trained by Shigella becoming pro-inflammatory and produce more antibacterial ROS 🦠🐟🛡️thank for your help @DBrokatzky 🤩 @LSHTM @CellPressNews papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

Postdocs should be given opportunities to take initiatives and receive public recognition for their contributions and leadership.

We should only recruit postdocs when we are committed to actively support their scientific growth & career progression.

Thank you @ZebrafishRock for the highlight! It’s been a great adventure to work with #zebrafish 🐠 to study infectious diseases 🦠🔬
Our #SpotlightZebrafish this week is on Dr. Margarida C. Gomes (@cg_margarida), a #postdoc w/ @MostowyLab @LSHTM. She investigates trained innate immunity in #zebrafish using Shigella to better understand mechanisms that hosts use to combat infection.

“There is great potential in using these findings to train the human immune system to combat Shigella and other antibiotic resistant bacterial infections.”

@MostowyLab & @cg_margarida tell us zebrafish research could lead to new ways to fight infection👉bit.ly/3PhNf2p

@DBrokatzky @MostowyLab @ERC_Research @LSHTM @ScienceAdvances We have found that Shigella training generates neutrophils that are more efficient at killing bacteria using mtROS as an antimicrobial mechanism 2/4
