Similar studies were published around the same time in PNAS @PNASNews by Dr. Bali Pulendran (doi.org/10.1073/pnas...) and in Science @ScienceMagazine by Dr. Yong-Jun Liu (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...).

Check out this new study and TCR Tg mouse generated by Endi Santosa @endicytosis.bsky.social. If you are interested in studying classic and inflationary CD8+ T cell memory to MCMV infection, we’re happy to share this mouse, and @laboxenius.bsky.social is extremely generous with her Tg lines as well.
