1/ What is the physiological impact of dietary proteins on steady-state T cells? Nelson Vaz and Ana Faria, my undergrad mentors, wondered about this question for decades.

Very pleased to see our paper is now in print:

Time-dependent regulation of cytokine production by RNA binding proteins defines T cell effector function https://www.cell.com/cell-reports/fulltext/S2211-1247%2823%2900430-8

here we show how RNA binding proteins regulate the magnitude and timing of cytokine expression in human T cells. and how the identified RBPs act a different time points and through different mechansism. The wonder world of RNA...
