Happily looking back to a rewarding year filled with inspiring discussions and connections amongst our scientific community - not only but certainly by participating at events like the Wolfsberg Meeting and @ImmunOctober!
Excited to continuing our scientific journey this year✨
Congratulations to Dr. Mariana Borsa (@nanaborsa) on this outstanding achievement and starting her own lab!🔬 We're incredibly proud to see a new lab branch out from our group. Wishing you and your team great success! 🚀👏
It was not a straightforward path, but it is happening: I am officially an Assistant Professor-to-be! 🎉 I am thrilled to announce that was awarded a @snsf_ch Starting Grant and will start my lab next year. Very grateful to all those that supported me over the last years 👇 (1/4)

Our big story on the importance of "stripy" T cells in antigen response, which started as a MSc Thesis 6 years ago, has finally made its way out in @ScienceMagazine! 🤩
Massive congrats to @BenHale95 & thanks to all collaborators particularly @LabOxenius & @blutspendesrk 🥰
Out now @ScienceMagazine: @BenHalePhD, @BerendSnijder & colleagues report that the internal architecture of T cells at the moment they are activated can influence their fate in response to antigen.

Congratulations to our lab members! Fabienne Gräbnitz, Dominique Stark (@stark_tcell) & @NathanZangger
Our team recently enjoyed a great time at the @EMBO
workshop on germinal centers in Galway 🇮🇪 Grateful for the inspiring talks and engaging discussions with experts in the field.
We look forward to continuing to contribute to research in this area!
Amazing #EMBO workshop last week in Galway 🇮🇪
Three days of #Bcells and #germinalcenters with great talks and a lot of friends!
Many thanks to the @MimZurich for the support!

Extremely pleased to share that @Benmeier45 started his PhD in our lab! After a brilliant master thesis
with us, he will join the #acd team and study asymmetric cell division during CD8 T cell differentiation. Very warm welcome and have a good start!
Big anniversary of over 20 years of science in @LabOxenius. Very delighted to celebrate with many past and current lab members at beautiful #Uetliberg - An exciting day of science and a revival of old memories and lasting relationships 🍾
Looking forward to many more years!

To what degree/when does asymmetric cell division determine CD8 T cell fate? Here's our summary by PhD student @JyotiPokharel3
on a study by @LabOxenius
in @CellReports

Asymmetric cell division gives rise to mixed-fate colonies, whereas symmetric cell division gives rise to effector-fate colonies. Asymmetric cell division functions as a safeguard for the generation of memory cells @LabOxenius

A recent ‘Cell Reports’ paper by Gräbnitz and colleagues from the @LabOxenius shows that ACD safeguards the development of memory CD8 T cells upon strong TCR activation. More: biol.ethz.ch/en/news-and-eve…
Thrilled to share our newest publication by @FGrabnitz and colleagues in @CellReports showing that asymmetric cell division safeguards memory CD8 T cell development upon strong TCR stimulation. 🥳🔬 Congrats Fabienne!
