Research involving mice and samples from #MultipleSclerosis patients reveals how anti-CD20 antibodies such as #Ocrelizumab protect neurons in gray matter, and ties the treatment’s effects to elevated levels of BAFF science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… @ScienceTM @NeurologyMainz @Roche

Happy to announce that our new work on brain directed autoantibodies is freely available on @BrainBehavImm. It is also a very special work for me as this is my "first first authorship"! The final edited version should be up soon (:
