Yes!  We are open for rotations for graduate students arriving in 2019. Welcome incoming Vandy grad students! We're recruiting for projects on cancer, immunology, computational biology, & more. See you at the CDB lunch & posters on Fri, Aug 16! @BiomedVandy @VUGradSchool @VICB_Vanderbilt @VUMC_VCI @VI4ResearchLab: https://t.co/X25coql5E3 pic.twitter.com/fPSfgw6oO5 — Jonathan Irish (@jonathanirish) August 13, 2019 If…

It’s the last few days to submit an abstract (due July 15) for the “New Directions in Immuno-Onocology” conference Shahram Kordasti and I are part of organizing in London this September.  Still time to register.  Hope to see you there! Register now for New Directions in Immuno-Oncology conference in London 10-12 Sept 2019! @CRUKresearch @ECMC_UK.…

Jonathan and Irish lab members Caroline Roe and Todd Bartkowiak had a great time at CYTO 2019 in Vancouver with collaborators Jeff Rathmell, Justine Sinnaeve, and Aïda Meghraoui-Kheddar.  Some highlights: Caroline Roe from the Irish lab presenting her #CYTO2019 poster on training novices and new lab members to do #CyTOF and measure signaling in human…

The latest version v3.0 of Marker Enrichment Modeling (MEM) is now available on Github at the Irish lab’s Github repostory: https://github.com/cytolab/mem The license is the same as before, which provides free use for academic groups and requires licensing MEM for any commercial use.  For more information about licensing, visit the Vanderbilt MEM site. Also see the original…
