Publication awarded “Very important publication” (Gö-VIP) status

Our publication “β-synuclein reactive T cells induce autoimmune CNS grey matter degeneration“ has been awarded VIP status in the Gö-VIP program.

[Translate to Englisch:] Gö-VIP Ausgezeichnung — [Translate to Englisch:] 3D Rekonstruktion der Kontaktstelle zwischen einer beta-Synuklein reaktiven T Zelle (grün) und dem Zellkörper eines Neurons (weiß) in der grauen Substanz im Kortex. Das Bild wurde mit einem konfokalen Mikroskop am Höhepunkt der autoimmunen Attacke des ZNS aufgenommen.

3D reconstruction of the contact point between a beta-synuclein reative T cell (green) and the cell body of a neuron (white) in the cortex’s grey matter. The image was taken by a confocal microscope at the peak of an autoimmune attack on the central nervous system.

Our publication “β-synuclein reactive T cells induce autoimmune CNS grey matter degeneration“(Lodygin et al. Nature 2019 Feb; 566 (7745): 503-508) has been awarded VIP status in the Gö-VIP program. This status is awarded by the medical faculty’s Research Commission for research with especially high scientific merit.
