SUMMARY:100th Anniversary of the Nobel Prize to Paul Ehrlich and Elie Metch
 nikoff "in recognition of their work on immunity"
DESCRIPTION:Leibniz HallBerlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften
 Markgrafenstr. 3810117 BerlinOne hundred years ago the birth of immunology 
 was made official by the Nobel Prize award to Elie Metchnikoff and Paul Ehr
 lich. Metchnikoff discovered phagocytosis by macrophages and microphages as
  a critical host-defense mechanism and thus is considered the father of cel
 lular innate immunity. Ehrlich described the side-chain theory of antibody 
 formation and the mechanisms of how antibodies neutralize toxins and induce
  bacterial lysis with the help of complement and thus is considered one of 
 the fathers of humoral adaptive immunity. Despite many discordant discussio
 ns in the initial phase after these discoveries, innate and adaptive respon
 ses are now known to be complementary partners in producing robust immunity
