Hi-ho, Hi-ho, it's off the myeloid factory we go. Grab your fastest belt, a spare inserter and all the iron plates you can get your hands on as the Bloody Minded Crew embark on their nerdiest references yet and learn all about the basic science behind myelopoiesis. You’d better hop on a train, because the only main bus here goes straight from the marrow out to the periphery carrying all sorts of myeloid cells. And some blue circuits.
