Wonderful panel discussion with Prof. Connie Wong, Prof. Wei Shi, and Dr. Prasanti Kotagiri on academic collaboration. 🌟 They shared valuable lessons on building trust, fostering partnerships, and sustaining successful collaborations in research. #Collaboration #Academia

Excellent talk from Md Amir Hossain (MIPS) on breast cancer and the tumour immune landscape. 🎯 He showed that beta-blockade can counteract chemotherapy-driven stress signals, reshaping immune cells in tumours and improving cancer control.

Insightful presentation from Jack Edwards (STM) on advanced melanoma treatment. By profiling peripheral immune changes during checkpoint blockade, his work aims to predict both treatment response and potential toxicity. #Melanoma #Monash

Great talk from Galih Adhyatma (BDI) on “suppressing the suppressors” — developing new antibody strategies to boost cancer immunotherapy. 🎯 Exciting progress in unleashing stronger anti-tumour responses. #Immunotherapy #Monash

Inspiring talk from Jessica Whui Yuin Wu (CID) on developing a novel targeted regulatory T cell therapy for HLA-DR3-associated systemic lupus erythematosus. 🌟 A promising step forward for precision immunotherapy. #Immunotherapy #Monash

Fascinating talk from Ashleigh Paschek (STM) on urinary tract infection and kidney dysfunction. 🦠 She showed the IL33-ILC2 axis drives severe infection, with interleukin-33 elevated in both chronic infection mice and patients with recurrent infections. #Immunology #Monash

Great talk from Alana Kirn (BDI) on how interferons shape B cell responses during chronic viral infection. 🦠 This work shows Type I IFN dynamics help define memory B cell identity and function over time. #Immunology #Monash
