Congratulations on this great achievement, Karen!👏
MISEV2023 sets key guidelines for EV research. With contributions from Edveena Hanser, Diego Kyburz, & an international consortium, the paper is now one of the top ten most-cited papers in JEV (Wiley, 2024).
Congratulations to everyone involved. isevjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
🔬 Two new studies from the Pinschewer Lab at the DBM shed new light on antiviral immunity — from Lassa fever vaccination to B cell “attrition” in chronic infection. Congratulations to the team! 👏

Lifelong viral infections acquired at birth are not immunologically silent. A @biomedizin.unibas.ch & @unibas.ch study shows that Tfh-driven antibody responses partly control virus, but remain limited. Boosting CD4 T cell help may offer new therapeutic avenues.
