DESCRIPTION:B cells are key elements of adaptive immunity because of their
  ability to produce highly specific antibodies in response to infection. A
 ntibodies not only confer protection from pathogenic threats\, but also ar
 e the basis for most currently licensed human vaccines. Despite their grea
 t importance for public health\, the precise events driving the initiation
  of antibody production are still unknown. During the seminar\, I will dis
 cuss how the spatial positioning of resident macrophages and innate-like T
  lymphocytes controls the initiation of B cell immunity during bacterial a
 nd viral infection.
