  • Award to J CoDiRC at Forskerfestivalen 2022 Mar. 8, 2023 9:43 PM

    On September 22, the science fair "Forskerfestivalen" was arranged at the Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology. Forskerfestivalen is the largest public dissemination event at UiO and gives the general audience a glimpse of research topics from the Medical Faculty and Department of Pharmacy. The stand from J CoDiRC presented the wonders of the small intestine and the magic of gluten.

  • Ludvig M Sollid wins University of Oslo's research prize for 2022 Sep. 29, 2022 8:07 PM

    On September 2, J CoDiRC centre leader Ludvig M. Sollid received the research prize from the University of Oslo. This prize acknowledges his longstanding national and international leading contribution to research in celiac disease and human mucosal immunology. Congratulations!

  • Machine intelligence to tackle the complexity of adaptive immune receptors Nov. 18, 2021 3:58 PM

    This November, Milena Pavlović and Lonneke Scheffer, PhD students in the group of prof. Geir Kjetil Sandve at the Department of Informatics (UiO) published their computational framework Immune ML in Nature Machine Intelligence. ImmuneML is a freely available tool that allows researchers to tackle complex computational questions related to studies of adaptive immune receptor repertoires. This tool will be an important resource for all studies that link B cell receptor and T cell receptor sequence data to antigen recognition and disease. For celiac disease, this represents one step closer towards the goal of detecting genes of gluten specific T cells directly in blood.
