A rare tweet from me, but some days cannot be silent. I stand with EM. I believe EM. I admire the strength and courage of EM.

New study by Dr. Kris Chadee & team explores how MUC2 mucin-producing goblet cells trigger pro-inflammatory pathways in response to Entamoeba histolytica, secreting CXCL8. ajp.amjpathol.org/article/S0002-… #Pathology #GutHealth #MUC2 #EntamoebaHistolytica #Research @UCalgary @UCalgaryMed
Nothing warms you up like listening to me talk about mucus on a snowy Wednesday. Come check out my seminar tomorrow morning (but only if you like super cool science) @HPI_network

New paper! Check out the latest paper from the lab, looking at IL-8 in goblet cells in response to Entamoeba histolytica #MucusMatters #Parasitology @HPI_network ajp.amjpathol.org/article/S0002-…
NEW BLOG ALERT 📣 Check out our newest post to our blog entitled ‘A Parasitology Playground in the Pacific Northwest’. A great and thought provoking read 🤔 Raise your hand if you’d love the chance to be on Christina’s teaching adventures 🖐️🖐️🖐️ theparasiteblog.wordpress.com/2025/02/28/a-p…

I’ll repeat - Canada has spoken and we know who our king is
Mucus is often overlooked but SO important to consider!
Next up we have a talk on Entamoeba histolytica as a model to study the gut mucus layer. Mucus matters more than we think!
I have never, ever, wanted something so badly in my life
We need a Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares for science. Gordon going into struggling labs, revealing the horrors lurking in fridges and file drawers, calling a postdoc a donkey.
Congratulations to our very own @Bugbebe1999 who won an award at International Congress of Entomology (ICE) in Kyoto Japan! She won a Young Scientist award for her oral presentation! What a huge accomplishment!
A brief break from science twitter to say: Kendrick, we loved DeRozan. And we aren’t all on Drake’s side. Kendrick and DeRozan forever, but don’t cancel Canada. But also who brought us that GOLD
