Super excited to share our latest work on immune-epithelial interactions in lung fibrosis post COVID-19! This would not be possible without the invaluable help from all the co-authors and our collaborators - Thank you! Read below for more info! (1/11)

@LidskyPeter Bats/mole rats - Minimal signs of aging given immune mechanisms to harbor an obscene viral load (IFN responses in bats) or bacterial exposure (antimicrobial peptides+poised myeloid cells) Eusocial/salmon - Lack such mech and instead "rely" on death to prevent ID transmission

@alvarofilgon As for the vaccine, there are already attenuated (by other methods) vaccines used for other viruses, but they are quite variable in their efficacy. I certainly think there is potential in adopting such an approach to improve efficacy with COVID, but will require more research!
