@DanielHoces took a punt on a PhD with my group, before we existed! It has been an honor, and a lot of fun, to work with this very talented immunologist, who taught me so much. Wishing him an amazing postdoc with @RogelioHdezL !

Team Slack has been building our prototype for the next Scientifica event! We're calling it pig-pong, and the finished article will teach you the differences between vaccines and antibiotics (with a bit of human help). @DanielHoces @VerenaLentsch @markusarnoldini

_Everyone_ in a class of 80 people claimed to LIKE cats 😼🤯, which ruined one of my analogies! What is going on? Also, the ETH microphone headsets have grown during the pandemic. Or my head has shrunk. Otherwise off to a good start!

I’m being asked to comment for several events called « race for a COVID-19 vaccine». Just to be clear, the race is all of us against the virus. The >40 clinical trials give us a chance to win this. Good explanation why 👇🏼. All involved are doing something amazing.

Thank you very much to everyone who joined for my inaugural lecture yesterday. Particularly to Viola Vogel @Vogel_Lab for the very flattering intro, @springman_sarah for the opening apero, and @NicolaSpaldin , and the quintet for musical enrichment. I thoroughly enjoyed myself!

Markus Aebi is one of those giants who has had a huge influence on the direction of my science and who point blank refused to take any credit for it! Inspiring generations of scientists to add a spoonful of sugar to their ideas. We wish him a very happy and fruitful retirement!

With Markus Aebi’s retirement, ETH is losing a great scientist. The microbiologist has also made a name for himself as a teacher and mentor. His passion is reflected in his involvement in many university institutions and in a series of prestigious awards.

1/ Hi twitter academia. This is a 🧵on an experience I had at a conference recently. After my oral presentation, I was TOLD that it was not reasonable to pose and test a hypothesis in mice based on observations made in the clinic. I was TOLD this was the WRONG way to do it.
