Thanks Michelle :) :)

2 years ago, with @immunologyking.bsky.social, we came up with the idea of organising a meeting on resident lymphocytes. After a lot of preparation, the EMBO workshop Adaptive Immunity in Barrier Tissues is taking place this week. I'm off to Basel🚂🇨🇭, very excited about #EMBOBarrierTissues meeting.
