title: Learning vaccinology from viral infections.
abstract: This issue of the Journal of Experimental Medicine celebrates and honors the life of Ralph Steinman (1943-2011), winner of the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Ralph's science was rooted in fundamental discovery with the goal of translating these findings into clinical medicine. He recognized the power of immunology in treating human disease and passionately championed studies on vaccine design, immune therapy, and human immunology. One particular collaborative effort between the Steinman and Sekaly laboratories resulted in a paper published in this issue of the journal.
