Briscoe Library has purchased a subscription to Science Immunology. Access begins with volume 1 (2016).
From the editors:
Immunology is in a period of unprecedented expansion and progress. The broad influence of the immune system on diverse aspects of health and disease is beginning to be appreciated, and innovative immunological interventions are proving successful in the clinic. New tools are revealing the extent of this influence with exceptional precision and reach. Science Immunology provides a platform for the most exciting findings in this growing field.

With sadness, we remember former Briscoe Buddy Angel who passed away on July 13th, 2022. Along with her friend June, Angel was a founding member of the Briscoe Buddies Library Therapy Dog service which brought a lot of love and free hugs to the UT Health campus. We will miss you, Angel, and are thankful to have all the wonderful memories that you made possible in the library and around campus. Our thanks also go to Angel’s mom, Library Associate Director Andrea Schorr, for letting Angel be a part of our Briscoe Buddies.
