Congratulations!!!! Well deserved! Tregs rock!

Discussing Tregs and their discovery at the 1st Immune Health Symposium! I’ve always admired Shimon’s pioneering work, and Mary’s and Fred’s 2001 paper was the key inspiration for us to develop the DEREG model, demonstrating that not only Foxp3, but Foxp3⁺ T cells, are key to prevent autoimmunity.

📣 EJI is proud to share that this year’s Nobel Prize winner, Shimon Sakaguchi, published with us on 6 October: bit.ly/46R7n4g We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Shimon for receiving the prize in recognition of his pioneering work on Tregs. #NobelPrize #Immunology #Tregs
