• Associate member of Centre for Complex Systems Studies (CCSS)

    Thrilled to share that I’ve been admitted as an Associated Member of CCSS. Our work on emergent T–B cell dynamics in human lymphoid structures sits naturally at the interface of immunology and complex systems science, and I’m excited to engage with the CCSS community, bring new complex perspectives into our experimental work, and contribute to…

  • Master’s degree for Bryn

    I’m incredibly proud to share that Bryn has officially obtained his Master’s degree in Biomedical Sciences! It was a real honor to be invited by him to deliver a laudation at the graduation ceremony—a moment that truly highlighted how far he has grown during his time in our lab. While we would have loved to…

  • Highlighted at UU: Publication of Elisa Fleischmann

    I’m very excited to share that Elisa has been highlighted by the UU on the publication of her thesis in an international immunology journal (Eur J Imm). She further discusses her ‘Support That Shaped the Journey’ and her continued trajectory as a researcher.Elisa, congratulations!

  • Exciting News: Our EFIS-IL Study Group on ‘Lymphoid Structures: Orchestrators of Immunity’ Has Been Approved!

    I’m delighted to share that our proposal for a new EFIS-IL Study Group has been officially accepted! This initiative brings together researchers across Europe to accelerate discoveries in lymphoid structures as orchestrators of immunity. Lymphoid structures—ranging from classical lymph nodes to tertiary lymphoid structures—serve as the command centers of immune coordination. They shape responses in…

  • Review on Connecting Immunity and Metabolic processes

    This review (open access) underscores a profound connection between the immune system and metabolic processes. Immune cells not only defend against pathogens but also influence metabolic pathways, while metabolic states can modulate immune responses. By delving into the mechanisms of this interplay, we can uncover novel therapeutics avenues to address metabolic and immune-related disorders. “This…
