Research, led by Edward Jenkins at the Kennedy Institute @kiroxford.bsky.social, has revealed how one of the immune system’s most important regulatory pathways operates at the earliest moments of T cell activation.
What a brilliant couple of days at the Kennedy Institute Postdoc Symposium! An opportunity to share research and look for new collaborations! 🔬🧬🥼🧫
Prof Irina Udalova has received £2.7M from the Medical Research Council to investigate how neutrophils adapt to tissues and contribute to immune diseases.
The research could lead to the development of a new class of neutrophil-targeted therapeutics.
