The Jung laboratory at the Weizmann Institute of Science, Department of Immunology and Regenerative Biology - studying functions of monocytes, macrophages and DC in health and disease https://www.weizmann.ac.il/dept/irb/jung/
so proud of... our lab alumnus Kiwook Kim just graduated his first own PhD student Joey ! at the University of Illinois Chicago, Mazal Tov !
interesting findings of the Walsh team showing the accumulation of MoMg in aging brains and prominence of CH variant harboring MoMg in AD brains www.alzforum.org/news/researc... exciting supporting evidence for potential clinical relevance of Jung-Seok's finding in the huDNMT3aR882H mouse model.

Mesenteric macrophage-monocyte circuit controls systemic inflammation during enteric bacterial infection
Kim et al. demonstrate that during enteric bacterial infection, mesentery-resident macrophages act as a regulatory hub that controls the recruitment of inf

WANTED A bioinformatician for the analysis of in-house produced multi-omic data. Guided by the Weizmann bioinformatics services, we aim to establish analysis and graphics pipelines. Proficiency in R / Python and statistical methodologies, as well as a basic understanding of biology, is required.
Awesome performance of the band composed of great immunologists, including our Editor-in-Chief Matteo Iannacone behind the keyboard, at the #IUIS2025 Congress Party! 🎹🎸🎶
we made it after a real odysee, but I trust the data speak for themselves.... Mazal Tov to Jung-seok and a big Thanks to all our collaborators ! www.cell.com/cell-reports...
After 12 (!) productive years in the Jung lab: Jung-seok's last day - wishing him all the best for his start into independence at UNIST (Ulsan National Institute of Science & Technology)
finally accepted for publication : 'Clonal hematopoiesis-associated motoric deficits caused by monocyte-derived microglia accumulating in aging mice' - here as a teaser: a still from Stefan's amazing movie showing a monocyte in the vasculature next to monocyte-derived microglia in a mouse brain.
what a great occasion to start our bluesky presence with: Congrats to our lab member Daichi for coming finishing on place 16 (!) out of the 2000 participants at the Tel Aviv Marathon last week !
