Annual update highlights advances in germinal center biology, emphasizing implications for lifelong health.
The germinal center (GC) is the engine room of the humoral immune response, driving the evolution of B cells into memory and long‐lived plasma cells that can protect against (re)infection. Understanding GC biology remains a key research focus for promoting lifelong health. In this annual update, we highlight several influential studies on GC biology published in 2025. Space constraints prevent us from discussing in depth all published work.
