Congratulations Robert A. Saxton, PhD! 2023 ICIS-Regeneron New Investigator Award for Excellence in Cytokine & Interferon Research Winner
Congratulations Marlies Meisel, PhD! 2023 ICIS-Regeneron New Investigator Award for Excellence in Cytokine & Interferon Research Winner. Marlies is an Assistant Professor at the University of Pittsburgh, US. She received her PhD in the Molecular Cell Biology and Oncology (MCBO) graduate program from the Medical University of Innsbruck, Austria in the lab of Prof. Gottfried Baier where her work focused on mechanisms of how Th17 cells mediate autoimmunity.
David Artis and Wanjun Chen are jointly recognized for the 2022 ICIS-BioLegend William E. Paul Award for their combined contributions to unraveling the exciting and important biology of cytokines. David Artis’ work has pushed the boundaries of conventional approaches to immune defenses, and elucidated the important role of cytokines in host defenses at the barrier surfaces of the gut, skin, and lungs. Wanjun Chen’s work has significantly advanced our understanding of pathogenesis and has led to the development of immunotherapies for autoimmunity, cancer, and infectious diseases.
