waiting for my contract to announce 👁️👁️

okay so now what

Hello everyone! I am a postdoc in mucosal immunology and I am looking for new postdoc position in Europe! I know a lot about gut mast cells, but also CD4 T cells and type 2/3 immunity in general. I've worked with single cell sequencing and neuroimmune interactions. Feel free to share! Thank you! ♥️🥼👩‍🔬

The yBIS community is growing, and so is our momentum.
Thank you to everyone who joined us in Leuven—we’re proud of what we’re building together and excited for what’s next 💙
#YoungImmunologists #yBIS2025

We had cutting-edge science, nice desserts and some very popular merch 👕
Thanks to all who joined us at #yBIS2025 and see you next year!

#yBIS2025 in numbers:
3 inspiring keynotes
9 selected short talks
1 session on science communication
1 career panel with our speakers
5 presentation awards
Thank you to all who contributed—you made the program shine! ✨

That's a wrap on #yBIS2025! Over 200 young immunologists came together for a day of science, networking—and yes, an unexpected fire alarm 🚨
Huge thanks to @kuleuvenuniversity.bsky.social, the Flemish Government & our 8 sponsors for making it possible 🙌

Thanks @sinakarimimd.bsky.social ! Hopefully we can get more of the Erasme people to join eventually :)
