Happy to share our latest findings out today in @PNASNews by @C_Boulouis showing how human mucosal-associated invariant T (#MAIT) cells rapidly adapt their functional response profile to cues in the microenvironment pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… @karolinskainst @CIM_Sweden #immunology
Today Tobias Kammann @TobiasKmmnn did the traditional "nailing" of his PhD thesis at the @karolinskainst library. This tradition goes back many years and marks the publication of the thesis, nowadays complemented with an "e-nailing" of the thesis pdf at the library website 🥂👍

BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.
A new study in Science #Immunology details the tissue-adapted roles of human mucosal-associated invariant T (#MAIT) cells, including specialized regulatory and effector functions. scim.ag/8k0 @TobiasKmmnn @SandbergLabKI
Thank you for highlighting our work!
Congratulations to @TobiasKmmnn and team, including @SandbergLabKI, on their recent @SciImmunology paper! 👏 They show functional heterogeneity and tissue site adaptation in resident MAIT cells across human barrier 🛡️ tissues with distinct regulatory and effector signatures.…
Extremely proud to share this latest work from my lab @TsinghuaSIGS in @ScienceAdvances on understanding #MAIT cell recruitment in appendicitis using #organoids! 100x thanks to our collab Shaohua Ma, & to Yichao, @faye__han, Zhengyu for their dedication! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
AAI is thrilled to announce a new partnership with Oxford University Press! @OUPAcademic will begin publishing The JI & @ImmunoHorizons in January 2025. AAI will retain ownership & editorial control of its journals. Learn more at ow.ly/vSJY50RwEW8 or Booth 725! #AAI2024
Authors who mistakenly submit to a predatory publisher may have to pay fees not transparently communicated. Also, articles may not be published, are unlikely to be cited, and may even harm your CV. Avoid falling victim to these predatory publishers: ow.ly/RuOh50R6P6o
Entire families obliterated for one reason: they were Jewish. Today on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we commemorate the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust. We promise to remember them today and always. #NeverAgain #IHRD2024 #WeRemember
Ready for launch. I am immensely grateful and impressed by everyone who made this mission possible. A special thanks to the Swedish government, the Swedish industry and the Swedish Armed Forces, who jointly and in a very determined way showed the importance of space…
🔬 Dr. Johan Sandberg (@SandbergLabKI) and @karolinskainst researchers investigated the capacity of mucosal-associated invariant T (#MAIT) cells to recover after severe #COVID19! 👏Congratulations team!
Happy to share new work from us on persisting impairment of #MAIT cells in people recovering after very severe #COVID19. These results suggest weakened antimicrobial #immunity in this patient group. journals.aai.org/jimmunol/artic… @karolinskainst @CIM_Sweden @J_Immunol

Check out our new study in @SciImmunology. Despite signs like increased PD-1 expression on spike-specific CD8+ T cells, hinting at T cell exhaustion, our findings reveal enhanced functionality of T cell immunity after mRNA booster vaccination. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
