6 October 2025 The Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet has decided to award the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine to: Mary E. Brunkow Institute for Systems Biology, Seattle, USA Fred Ramsdell Sonoma Biotherapeutics, San Francisco, USA Shimon Sakaguchi Osaka University, Osaka, Japan “for their discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance”

This year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was just announced:

This seems like a good opportunity for me to explain a bit about peripheral immune tolerance and where the prizewinners' work comes in 🧵

Congratulations to the 2025 Nobel in Medicine Winners!
And a great day for immunology nerds to tell everyone how cool T Regs are!
THEY ARE SO COOL 😎

Jamal died in his mission to seek truth. Thinking of you as you honor your friend in this post and through you work. May his memory be a blessing.

I’m very sorry for your loss

Hello, I am a scientist in a film. All my liquids are brightly coloured. The time it takes to perform tests and experiments is dependent on plot requirements, not biology or chemistry. Also, my safety glasses are extremely stylish.

Texas with a heart

I’ve been trying to find the words to express my sadness at the loss of precious life in Texas, but there are none. My heart is with all the victims of the flood and those who love them 💔

Next generation sequencing analysis reveals complex genetic architecture of childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus Objectives Our current understanding of the genetic architecture of childhood-onset SLE (cSLE) is limited by a dearth of comprehensive genomic studies in cSLE. We have quantified the number of known r...

We are so excited to share our manuscript describing the genetic architecture in a diverse, international cohort of childhood-onset lupus patients.
-We found that cSLE patients have a high burden of BOTH common and rare SLE risk variants
