ZonMw Vidi grant awarded
With this grant the lab will be able to expand.
I am incredibly honored and humbled to announce that I have been awarded the prestigious VIDI Award from ZonMw. It is with a heart full of gratitude and a deep sense of humility that I write this blog post. It want to acknowledge the support and guidance I have received from my mentors, colleagues, and loved ones along the way. Their encouragements have been invaluable, and I am truly grateful for them.
Antibody selection, rules of the game.
Antibodies constantly improve during disease. The body achieves this by producing many antibodies and then selecting the best ones. However, the rules governing this selection process, set by specialized support cells, remain a mystery. In this pioneering research, the researchers aim to unveil these rules, as understanding them is crucial to breaking them. By mastering the laws of this immunological game, the researchers strive to conquer diseases and revolutionize vaccination efforts.
