Episode 56: David Wraith, PhD, Professor of Immunology, Director of the Institute of Immunology and Immunotherapy, University of Birmingham

In this episode, David Wraith joins us to discuss his profound knowledge on autoimmunity and immunotherapy. His research team has revealed mechanisms whereby autoreactive T-cells escape deletion in the thymus and thus appear in the repertoire of all individuals. He also demonstrated that autoreactive T-cells can be silenced by suitable administration of fragments of their protein targets.
