In this monolog, Akshat ponders about the spatiotemporal underpinnings of cytokine concentrations in tissue niches...and how it all appears to function like a gossip network.

In this episode, Akshat outlines the salient features of CAR or TCR-engineered T cells, and deigns to ponder: is one modality just objectively better than the other?

In this Monolog, Casey discusses the unique case of a hyper-vaccinated individual in Germany with more than 200 COVID-19 vaccines and how his immunological profile looks like.

In this Monolog, Akshat discusses how the liver "speaks" both immunity and metabolism via bile to control hepatic tumors. Liver X Receptors also make an appearance.

In the 29th episode of our Immunology 101 series, Ash and Tanu start the new year 2024 with a discussion on Barrier Immunity with a focus on the gut.

In this monologue, Akshat talks about sterile inflammation, or leucocyte activation in the absence of inflammatory responses. These carefully regulated "internal affairs" of the immune system can be pathological or protective.

In this monolog, Casey talks about a 2023 article from the National Institute of Biological Sciences (Beijun, China) about the role of cytokines and immune cells in sleep deprivation-induced mortality.

In this monolog, Vijay talks about a 2016 article from Rockefeller University about the complex crosstalk in the gut between the neurons and macrophages.

In the 28th episode of our Immunology 101 series, Ash and Jatin talk continue discussion on cytotoxic T cells and transition into their functional cousins - the natural killer cells.

In the 27th episode of our Immunology 101 series, Ash and Jatin talk about how cytotoxic T cells deliver the kiss of death to their targets.
