Holobiont#15 Atypical T cell responses: HLA-E Immunology (Sir Andrew McMichael)Sir Andrew McMichael is a Professor of Immunology at the University of Oxford and previously Director of the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine. He is a fellow of the Royal Society and Academy of Medical Sciences and has been a leader in human immunology for decades, notably focusing on responses to viral infections including influenza and HIV.
We discuss:
Prof McMichael's career in immunology spanning from his work in the 1980s on HLA restriction and recognition of viral peptides to the study of a HLA-E, an atypical MHC-Ib molecule that is involved in immunosurveillance

McMichael SymposiumSome final wordsProfessor Sir Andrew McMichael speaks about his early days in Oxford, working in immunology. With a touch of humour he compares the tools available to immunologist in 1971 with today's technology. He also explains how immunology progressed from explaining phenomena to molecular immunology.2013-10-2817 minMcMichael SymposiumSome final wordsProfessor Sir Andrew McMichael speaks about his early days in Oxford, working in immunology.

Translational MedicineAiming for a HIV vaccineProfessor Sir Andrew McMichael tells us about recent developments in the search for a vaccine against HIV. Prof. Sir Andrew McMichael is working on human immunology and vaccines, first looking at flu virus and now HIV. His current lines of research include analysing early molecular events in HIV infection, T cell immune response to HIV and the use of vaccination to control HIV infection.2011-09-1306 minTranslational MedicineAiming for a HIV vaccineProfessor Sir Andrew McMichael tells us about recent developments in the search for a vaccine against HIV.
