We are looking for a newly minted PhD to join our efforts in elucidating the role of early life origin B cells in the adult immune system in the near future. These B cells carry the memory of early life exposure and can be resolved in the adult mouse by genetic time-stamping using lineage tracing …
ELO-B cells finally see the light of day
Check out this article and our latest study published in Immunity (2022) about how B cells that are programmed early in life can impact long-term immunity. It's a collaborative effort and represents the most provocative and exhilarating study from the Yuan lab yet!
Our new paper about megakaryocyte differentiation !?!
Behind the scenes, the making of this paper was challenging. In following the ATACseq data we had gone down an unfamiliar path...
New beginnings during the pandemic
The last year has marked a period of new beginnings for me. It was in the midst of the pandemic that I found myself making preparations for the next step of my career journey: moving from Edinburgh, UK, to beginning my PhD at Lund University in Lund, Sweden. This was in equal parts thrilling and challenging. During this uncertain time, moving countries was not an easy task and after …

I am currently on maternity leave with baby #2. How does one manage the responsibilities of a PI while on maternity leave in the middle of a pandemic? I will not lie, it's not easy and I don’t have it figured out. Since the beginning of 2021 though, my infant son and I have been …
Taking science to schools – A rewarding experience
Feedback from the “outside” always helps me to re-adjust this perception and to appreciate the opportunities I have through my PhD studies.
Trine is a Swedish Research Council international postdoc grantee!

Welcome Elena!
Our lab is growing! Warm welcome to Dr Elena Boldrin, our newest postdoctoral fellow and fourth lab member of Italian origin 🙂 . She graduated from her PhD in Ulm, Germany studying human B-ALL and will be learning all about mouse B cell ontogeny in our lab! Warm welcome to Lund University and the division …
How time flies – second year of PhD
So, more than one quarter of my official PhD program is already over. No reason to panic, yet. But the four years don't seem as long now as they did at first.
Welcome Selene!
It's our great pleasure to welcome Selene Sodini to our lab. She is originally from Italy and is joining us from a Masters programme at the University of Edinburgh where she has been working at the intersection of stem cell biology and biophysics. She will be studying the qualitative differences in neonatal and adult B …
