This study longitudinally tracks antigen-specific T cells in human upper airway tissues and blood, finding sustained memory T cell populations over 18 months.

This study shows that intranasal influenza vaccination generates durable local B cell memory in the upper airway, while intramuscular vaccination does not.

This study shows that SARS-CoV-2 mAb treatment shifts memory B cell epitope recognition, affecting their response to vaccination.

The paper profiles the active cistrome in peripheral leukocytes of critically ill COVID-19 patients to identify severity-associated cis-regulatory elements and their regulatory programs.

The paper identifies a conserved 166-gene host immune signature across viral pandemics, with a 20-gene subset predicting disease severity and guiding therapeutic strategies.
