CIML

Today we had the great honor to welcome Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Kastenmüeller from Universität Würzburg in our CIML seminar series. Wolfgang gave a brilliant seminar on "Affinity selection phase during CD8 T cell priming" and spent a full day exchanging with CIML scientists. Thanks for visiting ! #immunology #CIML wolfgang kastenmüller

We're thrilled to welcome Angelo Pilotti to the Centre d'Immunologie de Marseille-Luminy (CIML) as part of the IMMERGE project! https://lnkd.in/dA8cpwj2 As a PhD candidate at CIML, he'll be working in Dr. Philippe Pierre's lab, investigating autoimmunity with a focus on plasmacytoid dendritic cells and their role in interferonopathies. Angelo's research will contribute to our understanding of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and STING-associated vasculopathy in infancy (SAVI), in collaboration with Dr. Frédéric Rieux-Laucat from Institut Imagine in Paris. We're excited to have Angelo on board and look forward to the valuable insights his work will bring to the field of immunology! #WelcomeAngelo #CIML #IMMERGE #Immunology #Research

🏆 Lucas Rebuffet Wins Best Poster Award at the 7th European Congress of Immunology !! Congratulations !! 🎉 CIML is delighted to announce that Lucas Rebuffet, PhD student in Eric Vivier's team, has been awarded the best poster prize at the 7th European Congress of Immunology (ECI). His work, titled "High-Dimensional Single-Cell Analysis of Human Natural Killer Cell Heterogeneity," stood out among numerous high-quality contributions. This recognition highlights the significance and potential impact of the research conducted by Lucas Rebuffet and Eric Vivier's team. Their in-depth study of human Natural Killer cell heterogeneity opens new perspectives in understanding the immune system and could have significant implications for the development of innovative therapies. This success reinforces the CIML commitment to supporting cutting-edge research in immunology and training the next generation of talented scientists. #Immunology #ResearchExcellence #PhDLife #CIML #ScienceAward

Excited to announce the publication of the latest research of the Magali Irla lab at CIML in Nature Communications! 🎉🧬 Title: Lymphotoxin limits Foxp3+ regulatory T cell development from Foxp3lo precursors via IL-4 signaling In this study, Alexia Borelli and colleagues have made significant strides in understanding the development of regulatory T cells (Treg), crucial players in immune tolerance. Their work sheds light on the mechanisms regulating the recently identified Foxp3lo precursor pathway. This work has important implications for our understanding of immune tolerance and could potentially lead to new therapeutic approaches for autoimmune diseases and cancer immunotherapy.

On the cover of the last issue of Nature Immunology ! Groundbreaking research from Eric Vivier's lab at the CIML has unveiled new insights into Natural Killer (NK) cells ! Published in Nature Immunology, this collaborative study involving 20 major labs analyzed over 200,000 NK cells from 718 donors, identifying three main types: NK1, NK2, and NK3. The CIML-led discovery illuminates NK cell diversity across tissues and diseases, uncovering distinct developmental pathways. A new web portal offers a classification system to aid further research and clinical applications. This mapping of NK cells marks a significant advancement in immunology, with potential impacts on cancer research and treatment.
