And for the grand finale: Precursor central memory versus effector cell fate and naïve CD4+ T cell heterogeneity. A perfect reminder of immunology’s complexity—how one decision can shape an entire fate.

Day -2 highlights an immune-sensory dialogue: A γδ T cell–IL-3 axis controls allergic responses through sensory neurons. Immunology doesn’t just fight disease—it listens, connects, and responds. A beautiful symphony of cells to close out the year.

On day -3, we spotlight adaptation: Immune system adaptation during gender-affirming testosterone treatment. A testament to the immune system’s flexibility and resilience—much like the spirit we carry into the new year.

Day -4 turns our focus to early development: Proteome asymmetry in mouse and human embryos before fate specification. A fascinating reminder that immune-related pathways often begin shaping outcomes before fate is even sealed.

Day -8 shines a light on nature’s microscopic defense systems: Gamma-Mobile-Trio systems are mobile elements rich in bacterial defensive and offensive tools. Like an immune system stocking stuffer, these mobile elements carry all the surprises—tools for attack and defense.

On day -9 of our year-end countdown, we celebrate immune engineering at its finest: A tetraspecific engager armed with a non-alpha IL-2 variant harnesses NK cells against B cell NHL. Natural killer cells armed and ready—it’s immunology’s version of Santa’s sleigh delivering precision medicine.
Scientists have invented a new "GPS" that guides our body's own fighters to destroy blood cancer cells.

Day -10: Today’s highlight takes us to the liver: Kupffer cell reverse migration into liver sinusoids mitigates neonatal sepsis and meningitis. Proof that even immune cells can come home for the holidays—and do remarkable things when they get there.

After six months, the ImmunoSketch project has officially reached its end. The goal? To take our intricate, jargon-heavy science and turn it into something your loved ones might finally understand—so they stop assuming you just “look at cells” all day.
