Jannie Borst

Jannie G. Keyser-Borst is a Dutch cancer immunologist. She became Professor at Leiden University on January 16th, 2019 [1] At the Leiden University Medical Center she currently runs a research group investigating the regulation of the T cell response [2]

Education and career

In 1980 she received her Master's degree in biology with chemistry at Leiden University. For the main part of her PhD she worked at the Dana–Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School in Boston, supervised by Prof. Dr. Cox P Terhorst. During this time she unraveled the structure of the CD3/T cell complex. After graduation she worked with Immunologists Dr Jan E de Vries and Dr Hergen Spits in the Netherlands. She obtained her Ph.D. degree from Leiden University in 1985. In 1987, she received a 5-year personal fellowship from The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research.

In 1992, she became staff scientist at the Netherlands Cancer Institute and was named the head of the Division of Immunology in 2002.[3] In 1999, she was appointed professor in Experimental Oncology at the University of Amsterdam.

Awards

She received the Van Loghem career award from the Dutch Society of Immunology in 2009.[4]

In 2012, she was elected EMBO member.

In 2018 she received the Delphine Parrott award for inspiring female scientists[5] by Megan MacLeod during the West of Scotland Immunology Group showcase at the University of Glasgow

Important work

The structure of the human T cel receptor/CD3 complex.[6][7][8]
The Gamma delta T cell [9] and the development of the first Antibody to detect these cells in humans.[10]
The identification of TNF receptor CD27 and CD70 ligand as important costimulatory system on T cells [11][12][13]

gollark: It's documented now.

gollark: One of the SCP-001s was that but it's a database entry and not a website.

gollark: We need the concept of bees or we won't have it.

gollark: We did use a GPT to improve the communist manifesto one time.

gollark: I must have slipped on the concept of bees and dropped it.
