On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
We discovered that during the early immune contraction phase of an acute infection with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, 2D TCR–pMHC affinity of TCR transgenic P14 T cells increased more for cells from the splenic red pulp (RP) than the white pulp (WP). This difference was governed by regulatory T cells and TGF-β. The increased 2D affinity of RP cells correlated with their increased ability to kill target cells and to recognize a CTL escape epitope. Memory precursors from WP preferentially developed into long-term memory cells as compared to cells from RP, despite expression of the same memory markers.
