Finally, our article on Ca2+ microdomains that depend on adhesion in T cells has been published. And we made it to the cover @scisignal !!! #firsttime #proudPI #newPI #sfb1328 @UKEHamburg @EuroCalcium @dfg_public

Excited about #Tcells? Check out this newly published book on T cell activation in the Methods in Molecular Biology. series, edited by @pchoern 🔬🧫🧬 It provides detailed, up-to-date methods used in basic and applied research on T cell activation. Chapters explore the fundamentals of T cell biology and a board range cutting-edge techniques from initial Ca2+ live-cell imaging to downstream effector functions in autoimmune disease.
