Our work on genetic mapping of immunity to T. gondii is published in PLOS Pathogens

News: December 06, 2021

Check our out publication in PLOS Pathogens. From a genetic mapping experiment, we determine that Nfkbid is central for the antibody response to T. gondii. Both B-1 and B-2 cells are required for the immunity observed to T. gondii. This is Scott Souza's thesis work and in performed in collaboration...

Scott Souza obtains his Ph.D.!

News: July 16, 2021

Scott Souza successfully defended his Ph.D. He is largely responsible for our lab's current interogation into B cell responses, which required him to explore new models in the lab. We are very proud of all he has accomplished! His publication on his thesis work will be forthcomming.
