Early antibody lineage diversification and independent limb maturation lead to broad hiv-1 neutralization targeting the env high-mannose patch.
(University of Nairobi, 2016)The high-mannose patch on HIV Env is a preferred target for broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs), but to date, no vaccination regimen has elicited bnAbs against this region. Here, we present the development of a bnAb ... -

Early growth of very low birth weight infants
(Department of Paediatrics and Child Health, University of Nairobi, 2006)Background: Early growth in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants has been found predictive of their later outcomes. This has led to increased interest in establishing measures to optimise such growth. In facilities without ... -
Early HIV Infections Among Men Who Have Sex with Men in Five Cities in the United States
(2015)We tested blood samples from men who have sex with men (MSM) to detect early HIV infection. Early HIV included both acute (infected past 30 days) and recent (estimated recency past 240 days). Acute infections were defined ... -
Early HIV-1 Infection Is Associated With Reduced Frequencies of Cervical Th17 Cells.
(2015)BACKGROUND:: The hallmark of HIV infection is progressive but variable rates of systemic and mucosal CD4 depletion, leading to immunodeficiency. The impact of early HIV infection on cervical CD4 T-cell populations in ... -
Early Hominin Foot Morphology Based on 1.5-Million-Year-Old Footprints from Ileret, Kenya
(2009)Hominin footprints offer evidence about gait and foot shape, but their scarcity, combined with an inadequate hominin fossil record, hampers research on the evolution of the human gait. Here, we report hominin footprints ... -
