Shimon Sakaguchi
Shimon Sakaguchi is a renowned Japanese immunologist celebrated for his influential work on the mechanisms of immune tolerance. His research has greatly contributed to the field of immunology, particularly in understanding how the immune system can avoid attacking the body’s own tissues. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his pivotal discoveries related to immune system regulation.
