casi 3 meses después de haber cerrado oficialmente mi expediente académico en la UMA, no soy para mada consciente de que he terminado la carrera en bioquímica 🧪
“To be successful as a scientist, I think you really need to be curious. You need to be inquisitive. You want to know answers to stuff that you don’t have a good sense on. You have to be stubborn because you’re going to be wrong and you’re going to not get through this. You have to have a long-term perspective. You can go months, years, sometimes making painfully little progress on something – and then something happens and it’s exciting. But if you need immediate gratification, you should not be a scientist. That’s not going to work for you, because there’s very little immediate gratification in this business. You’ve got to be stubborn and you’ve got to have a long-term perspective.”
Some career advice from 2025 medicine laureate Fred Ramsdell. He shared the prize with Mary Brunkow and Shimon Sakaguichi for their “discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance.”
"I want you to remember when you win your Nobel Prize that you learned that here."
2019 medicine laureate Gregg Semenza remembers his biology teacher Rose Nelson who inspired him and foresaw him receiving the Nobel Prize.

This year’s Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to three scientists for discovering a class of immune cells that help to prevent the body from attacking its own tissues

Our immune system is an evolutionary masterpiece. Every day it protects us from the thousands of different viruses, bacteria and other microbes that attempt to invade our bodies. Without a functioning immune system, we would not survive.
One of the immune system’s marvels is its ability to identify pathogens and differentiate them from the body’s own cells. The microbes that threaten our health do not wear a uniform – they all have different appearances. Many have also developed similarities to human cells, as a form of camouflage. So how does the immune system keep track of what to attack and what to protect? Why doesn’t the immune system attack our bodies more frequently?
Researchers long believed they knew the answer to these questions: that immune cells mature through a process called central immune tolerance (see image). However, our immune system turned out to be more complex than they believed. Mary Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell and Shimon Sakaguchi have been awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance.
BREAKING NEWS
The 2025 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell and Shimon Sakaguchi “for their discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance.”
Finally published our pipeline to find potential agonists/antagonists of the TREM2-DAP12 binding! Great work of all authors! Special thanks to @AceAlzheimer,@CABD_UPO_CSIC and @ISantangela for their support https://t.co/k7JpKJtvGh
The first woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize, the first individual to be awarded two Nobel Prizes and still today the only individual with two Nobel Prizes in two different scientific categories: Marie Skłodowska Curie.
Skłodowska Curie developed the term radioactivity, discovered the chemical elements polonium and radium and contributed to develop new cancer treatments. For her scientific dedication and remarkable breakthroughs, she was awarded the 1903 physics prize and the 1911 chemistry prize.

Linus Pauling is the only person to have received two unshared Nobel Prizes - in chemistry and peace.
He used quantum mechanics to understand and describe chemical bonding. Later he campaigned vehemently against nuclear weapons and spearheaded a petition to ban nuclear testing.
Finally in preprint our last work. A method to screen for modifiers of the TREM2-DAP12 transmembrane binding affinity... Thanks to @AceAlzheimer and @ISantangela for their support!!
