Mikael Sandström

Mikael Sandström is a Swedish physician known for his research on immunology and the biological differences in immune responses between men and women. He has contributed to the understanding of how hormones like estrogen and testosterone influence immune function, stating that women generally have stronger immune systems due to these hormonal effects. His insights are particularly relevant during cold and flu seasons, as they shed light on the common perception of 'man flu' and the differing experiences of illness between genders.
