Theresia Gutmann was honored by the Signal Transduction Society (STS) for her research on the innate immune signalling in the context of virus-host interactions.
Theresia Gutmann received the STS Science Award 2025 on the 28. Meeting on Signal Transduction in Weimar. The award recognizes her recent research on how the immune system recognizes DNA and how this process is disturbed by the nucleocapsid protein of Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2.
Gutmann's results provide mechanistic insights into the virus-host interactions in coronaviral infections at the molecular level. Her work expands the repertoire of mechanisms by which the corona virus, evade the immune system, and helps explain how SARS-CoV-2 attenuates the early immune responses during infection.
At the meeting, Theresia Gutmann presented the results of her research and delivered the laudatory address for the STS Honorary Medal winner Hao Wu from Harvard Medical School and Boston Children's Hospital. Wu was honored for her pioneering discoveries of supramolecular protein complexes in immune signaling.
We warmly congratulate her and wish her continued success!
