Petter Brodin: Investigates the dynamic regulation of the immune system by sex hormones across the lifespan. Utilizing cohorts undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy, the research maps how testosterone downregulates antiviral type-1 interferon responses while boosting pro-inflammatory TNF axes. The work emphasizes the use of miniaturized human whole-blood cultures to capture nuanced metabolic and immunological shifts.
