Excited to share our new preprint! We studied how T cells are functionally & clonally shaped across organs over time. With the new TRACK mice, we genetically label recently activated T cells with tdTomato and track their migration across tissues. #immunology #science www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The subfornical organ is a nucleus for gut-derived T cells that regulate behaviour - Nature

A distinct population of CD4 T cells resides in specific regions of the steady-state brain, and these T cells are programmed in the periphery by the microbiome to coordinate adaptive behaviour.
