Prestigious recognition was awarded Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdellu and Shimon Sakaguchi for their pioneer discoveries related to peripheral immune tolerance.
Their work has huge importance to understand how the immune system recognizes and tolerates their own cells, which prevents the development of autoimmune diseases. These discoveries opened a new door in research and therapies targeting the disorders of the immune system.
Congratulations to Dr. Mary E. Brunkow, Dr. Fred Ramsdell, and Dr. Shimon Sakaguchi, Winners of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, for Discovering How Our Immune System Stays in Balance – Protecting Us from Countless Microbes While Preventing Autoimmune Disease. pic.twitter.com/i5gwda1x17

The decision on this year’s laureates said the Secretary of the Nobel Committee for Physiology and Medicine Robert Perlmann, who briefly presented the work and contribution of all winners.
The Nobel Award for Medicine is traditionally first in a series of prestigious recognitions that are awarded every year for exceptional achievements in science, literature and investment for peace.
