Amandine Viau, Joran Martin and I had a very nice meeting @club-cfc.bsky.social in Aussoy where we could present our recent works @institutimagine.bsky.social in the @theracilproject.bsky.social ! Congrats to Joran who won the best talk price! #cilia #ciliopathies #nephronophthisis #kidney

🔴 Happening now at Institut Imagine: Prof. @danmucida.bsky.social (Rockefeller University, HHMI) on how immune cells and the gut lining talk to each other, and how the brain senses what's happening in the gut, from infection to inflammation. #Immunology #Neuroimmunology

One bold idea can change everything. Paul Bastard is leading team ATLAS to explore whether autoantibodies also influence cancer risk. Read Paul’s full interview at bit.ly/4A4Og4B 📹 Includes footage from @institutimagine.bsky.social

🔴 Happening now at our Monday Seminar: Prof. Xavier Roca (NTU Singapore) on "Diagnostics of mutations affecting splicing in genetic disease." Exploring two decades of splicing biology, from mechanisms to variant interpretation & rare disease therapeutics. 🧬 #InstitutImagine #Genetics

Congratulations to Damien Glon and Quentin Riller on this fruitful collaboration between Yves Gaudin's team @cnrs-paris-saclay.bsky.social and our team @institutimagine.bsky.social . www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The #ISDN2027 symposium on molecular drivers of stability versus #plasticity of neural cell fate and their implication for #brain repair will be completed by @sarabiz86.bsky.social from @institutimagine.bsky.social and Samir Vaid from @tudresden.bsky.social.

1/ We are excited to report in @PNASNews that autoantibodies neutralizing type I interferons underlie 35% of cases of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) encephalitis or myelitis from a multiple cohort study. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

🔬 Severe pediatric IBD with no genetic cause? Research by Institut Imagine & Uppsala University shows ~2% of cases have autoantibodies neutralizing IL-10, the gut's inflammation brake. Standard tests miss them, but finding them guides targeted care. 🔗 doi.org/10.1136/gutj... #IBD

There is more than cilia beating in the establishment of left-right symmetry! Proud to have contributed to this beautiful study by Amaia Ochandorena Saa @meilhacsigolene.bsky.social where Thierry Blisnick imaged mouse node by SEM doi/10.1126/sciadv.adx6486 @pasteur.fr @institutimagine.bsky.social

#FOXP3 deep intronic variant underlying #IPEX. New report from Pierre Gaufryau, Marie-Claude Stolzenberg, Jérémie Rosain @jrosain.bsky.social et al. @hopitalnecker.bsky.social @institutimagine.bsky.social: rupress.org/jhi/article/... #Atopy #Diagnostics #Autoimmunity #InbornErrorsOfImmunity

🩸 Violent immune reactions (HLH) often hide blood cancer. Biopsies are risky, but a new 2-step blood test (cytokine ratio & score) from Hermine's team at Institut Imagine quickly identifies underlying lymphomas—meaning fewer invasive procedures and faster treatment. 🔗 doi.org/10.1002/ajh....

1/ We are thrilled to share our first @cellcellpress.bsky.social paper with the ATLAS team studying the role of antibodies, emphasizing autoantibodies in cancer (authors.elsevier.com/a/1nUSAL7PXy...).

🔬 How do ADPKD cysts form? A JCI study by @hkd-l.bsky.social at Institut Imagine & Frank Bienaimé's group @inem-necker.bsky.social shows: without polycystin-1, the tubule sleeve gets softer, not stiffer. This loosening lets the tube expand. A new therapeutic target! 👏 📄 jci.org/articles/vie...

Why do some ‘super avoiders’ never develop cancer? Team ATLAS has launched its global effort to find out, supported by the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, the Susan Wojcicki Foundation, the Torrey Coast Foundation and @cancerresearchuk.org. ➡️ www.cancergrandchallenges.org/news/backing...

After 10 fantastic years at the @mrc-mbu.bsky.social, @cam.ac.uk, it is time for our lab to move to France!! I am delighted to announce that we will begin a new adventure at the @institutimagine.bsky.social in Paris in September 2026!!

🧠 What if Alzheimer's isn't just about neurons? A new Nature Neuroscience study from Michela Deleidi's team at Imagine shows stressed mitochondria cause microglia (brain immune cells) to age prematurely, disrupting neural connections. 📄 lnkd.in/gCg5qdRb
