Happily looking back to a rewarding year filled with inspiring discussions and connections amongst our scientific community - not only but certainly by participating at events like the Wolfsberg Meeting and @ImmunOctober!
Excited to continuing our scientific journey this year✨

Congratulations to Dr. Mariana Borsa (@nanaborsa) on this outstanding achievement and starting her own lab!🔬 We're incredibly proud to see a new lab branch out from our group. Wishing you and your team great success! 🚀👏

[Mariana Borsa (she/her) @nanaborsa]

It was not a straightforward path, but it is happening: I am officially an Assistant Professor-to-be! 🎉 I am thrilled to announce that was awarded a @snsf_ch Starting Grant and will start my lab next year. Very grateful to all those that supported me over the last years 👇 (1/4)

@carovinuesa @BecherLab @UZH_en @UZH_ch It was a great pleasure having you with us @carovinuesa . A very enriching day for the entire Zurich immunology community!

[Snijder Lab @snijderlab]

Our big story on the importance of "stripy" T cells in antigen response, which started as a MSc Thesis 6 years ago, has finally made its way out in @ScienceMagazine! 🤩

Massive congrats to @BenHale95 & thanks to all collaborators particularly @LabOxenius & @blutspendesrk 🥰

[Oxenius Lab @LabOxenius]

Congratulations to our lab members! Fabienne Gräbnitz, Dominique Stark (@stark_tcell) & @NathanZangger

Our team recently enjoyed a great time at the @EMBO
workshop on germinal centers in Galway 🇮🇪 Grateful for the inspiring talks and engaging discussions with experts in the field.

We look forward to continuing to contribute to research in this area!

[Alessandro Genovese @alessandro6enov]

Amazing #EMBO workshop last week in Galway 🇮🇪

Three days of #Bcells and #germinalcenters with great talks and a lot of friends!
Many thanks to the @MimZurich for the support!

Extremely pleased to share that @Benmeier45 started his PhD in our lab! After a brilliant master thesis
with us, he will join the #acd team and study asymmetric cell division during CD8 T cell differentiation. Very warm welcome and have a good start!

[Oxenius Lab @LabOxenius]

Big anniversary of over 20 years of science in @LabOxenius. Very delighted to celebrate with many past and current lab members at beautiful #Uetliberg - An exciting day of science and a revival of old memories and lasting relationships 🍾

Looking forward to many more years!

Congratulations to Annette Oxenius on her election as one of 69 new members of EMBO! A well-deserved recognition of her research on understanding host-pathogen interactions and the immune system's response to infectious diseases. #EMBO #ResearchExcellence #Congratulations

[Oxenius Lab @LabOxenius]

Very honored to be selected among so many amazing scientists! Thank you @EMBO and congratulations to all the other nominees!

To what degree/when does asymmetric cell division determine CD8 T cell fate? Here's our summary by PhD student @JyotiPokharel3
on a study by @LabOxenius
in @CellReports

[Oxenius Lab @LabOxenius]

@CGerlach_lab @JyotiPokharel3 @CellReports thank you very much for the nice summary of our study!

[Waggoner Lab @LabWaggoner]

Asymmetric cell division gives rise to mixed-fate colonies, whereas symmetric cell division gives rise to effector-fate colonies. Asymmetric cell division functions as a safeguard for the generation of memory cells @LabOxenius

A recent ‘Cell Reports’ paper by Gräbnitz and colleagues from the @LabOxenius shows that ACD safeguards the development of memory CD8 T cells upon strong TCR activation. More: https://t.co/tLi4VQlOkS

Thrilled to share our newest publication by @FGrabnitz and colleagues in @CellReports showing that asymmetric cell division safeguards memory CD8 T cell development upon strong TCR stimulation. 🥳🔬 Congrats Fabienne!
