We are pleased to announce that DR Tom Sprong,
University Medical Centre St Radboud Nijmegen, Department of General Medicine, in recognition
of his excellent poster presentation at 14th ECCMID on the complement
activation during meningococcal disease. His data demonstrate that the

occurs via the alternative and lectin pathway, whereas classical pathway
engagement develops only after 24 hours.
