Science Immunology Sarah Henrickson So excited for this story on IgA deficiency to be out at Science Immunology ! Great collaboration with Sarah Henrickson. We were curious why most kids with IgA deficiency were not symptomatic. What exactly is IgA doing for the mucosal and systemic immunity? dx.doi.org/10.1126/sciimm…

Team is gearing up for the long weekend on the #eenchallenge Wishing everyone a Happy Memorial Day #pediatricIBD #IBDnutrition #exclusiveenteralnutrition
