Podcast discusses the longevity and division capabilities of T cells in mice over 10 years and 51 immunizations. Topics include memory T cell responses, telomere activity, cell transfers in cancer, and advancements in cell research. Conversations also cover hypogammaglobulinemia, ME-CFS, wound healing benefits, and open-access papers on Lupus, virology, and neuroton in immune responses.

Immunology experts discuss immune memory to SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 vaccines, emphasizing CD8 T cells' role, different vaccine responses, epitope recognition, B cell longevity, booster efficacy debates, ethical obligations of billionaires, and the importance of knowledge sharing for vaccine development.

Jon joins Immune to discuss the research of his laboratory on understanding how the innate immune system recognizes and responds to pathogens, and his hypothesis that infection infidelities drive innate immunity.
