Very thankful that another Murooka/Santer lab project was funded 3 weeks later for our #CIHR Catalyst grant with Dr Ali Ashkar as fellow coPI & coA @annablakney.bsky.social expanding on #IFNL #antiviral effects in the STBBI field. Super excited to work with this awesome team across 3 universities🥳🙌

#BIW2025 has ended, but many great memories. The science in presentations/posters was awesome, but the networking & seeing old friends & meeting new #inflammation researchers made the trip even better 😀 Thanks to the organizers 🙏🏻 & thanks to all who provided the entertainment last night too 🎸🎹🎤🎶
