The prize recognizes foundational discoveries about regulatory T cells and the FOXP3 gene that redefined immune tolerance and opened avenues to treat autoimmune disease, enable transplantation, and advance immuno-oncology. ISB celebrates Dr. Brunkow’s leadership and collaborative science.
ISB has won a 2025 AWS Imagine Grant to advance Tarpon, a generative AI platform that generates digital fingerprints of T cell receptors. By linking immune signatures to genomic and clinical data, Tarpon enables rapid discovery and the design of targeted therapies.
At a recent virtual town hall, leaders of the Pacific Northwest RECOVER hub shared what they’ve learned so far about long COVID — from symptom trajectories and genetic risk to early trial results and upcoming studies — and answered questions from participants about risk factors, persistent symptoms and what comes next.
Discussing Super Agers, Drs. Eric Topol and Lee Hood connected breakthroughs in genomics, AI, and lifestyle science to the pursuit of longer, healthier lives.
The pioneering work of Mary Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell began with a mysterious mutant mouse known as “scurfy,” leading them to identify the FOXP3 gene and unlock how regulatory T cells prevent autoimmune disease — discoveries that now point to new treatments in cancer and autoimmunity.
