So proud of 3 brilliant PhD graduates from Kedzierska Lab Doherty Institute UniMelb MDHS! Congratulations Drs Habel, Zhang, and Foo 🎉🥰🥂




Scientists discovered a tiny body switch that, when stuck 'on,' makes flu and COVID-19 much worse – and turning it 'off' could save lives! Kedzierska Lab Katherine Kedzierska Brendon Chua The Jeremy Chase Crawford Lab @PGTImmune Helbig Lab Ebony Monson, PhD Sarah Londrigan tinyurl.com/5n8b9p6j

Thank you roro, Hannah Yamagata and Mike Mitchell for the wonderful preview of our recent study published in Cell. Be sure to check out the paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…



This study by Louise Rowntree & Jennifer Audsley, led by @ProfPCDoherty, Irani Thevarajan, @svalk03, Katherine Kedzierska & Oanh Nguyen, conducted Doherty Institute, UniMelb MDHS, University of Melbourne in collab with The HKU-Pasteur Research Pole & CUHK Medicine 🏥🩸

Our study Cell defines an archaic allotype of the inhibitory KIR, KIR3DL1 observed in #FirstNations Oceanians with enhanced binding to HLA-A*24:02, important for NK cell immunity! #BrooksLab Katherine Kedzierska Rossjohn lab @PN0rmski cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

A fascinating new study in Cell identifies a new gene variant that influences first-line immune defences in First Nations people in Oceania. Co-led by Katherine Kedzierska, Steven Tong, Prof Andrew Brooks, Prof. Jamie Rossjohn, @PN0rmski, and many collaborators Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute,


Our latest study Science Immunology identifies the molecular determinants of cross-reactive B35/NP418-restricted CD8+ T cells across IAVs from 1918 H1N1 to 2024 H5N1, and assesses their functionality. Katherine Kedzierska Rossjohn lab science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Researchers in Science #Immunology have identified CD8+ T cells from human donors that can recognize naturally occurring influenza variants spanning more than 100 years, including the 1918 influenza A and 2024 #H5N1. Prof. Jamie Rossjohn Kedzierska Lab scim.ag/4hpSzh1


🚨 Flu breakthrough! 🚨 Researchers at Doherty Institute & Monash University have discovered immune cells that recognise flu viruses even as they mutate—a further step toward a universal flu vaccine. go.unimelb.edu.au/d7z8 UniMelb MDHS The Royal Melbourne Hospital Oanh Nguyen Prof. Jamie Rossjohn Kedzierska Lab
