The COVID-19 pandemic has effected all of us in different ways, Ranjeet Singh Mahla highlights the negative impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on immunology research and management of other diseases. Particularly the diversion of resources for the diagnosis, treatment & research efforts for other diseases e.g. #TB, #cardiovascular disease, cancer etc.
Do you have a favourite immune cells? How would you describe this cell to your none-immunologists peers or children? Some of us like, Amy Monaco and a do have favourite cells, and in some case focus our whole immunology career on that cell.
