An infographic titled “2025 Nobel Prize” was created in Ankara, Türkiye, on October 6, 2025, highlighting the winners of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine — Mary Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell, and Shimon Sakaguchi. The trio was honored for their groundbreaking discoveries on peripheral immune tolerance, a mechanism that prevents the immune system from attacking the body’s own cells and tissues.
Their pioneering research has provided critical insights into autoimmune diseases, such as type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis, paving the way for the development of new therapeutic approaches aimed at restoring immune balance.
The Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute recognized their contributions as a milestone in immunology, marking a major advancement in understanding how the immune system distinguishes between self and non-self. This year’s award underscores the importance of scientific collaboration and long-term research in improving human health and combating immune-related disorders.
