Congratulations to Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell, and Shimon Sakaguchi, winners of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Medicine for uncovering how peripheral immune tolerance keeps the immune system from attacking the body. Their discoveries transformed treatments for autoimmunity, transplantation, and cancer!
