Our largest study into the risk factors for #Shingles is now out! Many thanks to all of the volunteers who participated in our #varicella #zoster studies over the years! Also thanks to Marlies Boeren and Romi Vandoren undertaking this huge effort! doi.org/10.1093/infdis…

Delighted to join forces with Ravi K. Patel, Elvira Mennillo, and Joann Arce, PhD as a Topic Editor for a #systems #immunology issue at Frontiers - Immunology. The first hurdle: finding contributors to showcase groundbreaking research in the field of #multiomics ! frontiersin.org/research-topic…

📢Join us at #ABLS24 as Pieter Meysman ImmuneWatch delves into #ArtificialIntelligence's role in deciphering the human #Tcell repertoire! Don't miss this captivating topic and many more-register now before the February 22nd deadline! 📍 Reserve your spot 👉 vibconferences.be/events/applied…

Preprint out on a part of my HLA typing efforts for visceral leishmaniasis development in people living with HIV. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Glad to have been invited to give a talk at #ABLS24 today. Always fun to explain the importance of #AIRR sequencing and T-cells to the wider Belgian bioinformatics community. And how the lessons we learned are broadly applicable.

Excited to share our latest achievement: Consolidated 12 #singlecell datasets into a comprehensive #Tcell atlas. Explore it here: zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/ze… CZI Science airr_community biomina

Check out our updated pre-print on TCR-first analyses in multimodal single-cell RNA seq data. This comes with a new version of STEGO.R, including streamlined QC processes and improved the analysis process with an automated section. CZI Science biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

After major revisions - resubmission - rejection - appeal - rebuttal - it is now finally out! Sure, this work had a lot of limitations, but the review process was a real effort. nature.com/articles/s4200…

Win a free 3D printed T-cell receptor! 😎 Next week you can find us at the #AIRRC7 meeting in Porto, organised by airr_community. We assume that at least 50% of the people there are fascinated with T-cell receptors (or more?). Pass by our booth next week to learn more🤓 #TCR

Glad to finally be able to showcase our #TCR-#epitope annotation tool DETECT and the cool results we have gotten with it at the airr_community #AIRRC7 conference! And as of now you can use it yourself!

Romi Vandoren (University of Antwerp) introduces Adaptive Immune Receptor Repertoire-Wide Association Study (AIRRWAS), a framework to link TCR sequences to their target microbial species. #AIRRC7 Full agenda: tinyurl.com/airrcmeeting7

Vincent Van Deuren (University of Antwerp) analyzed the synovial fluid T-Cell Receptor (TCR) repertoire across different arthritis groups and T-cell subsets, to characterize the T-cells associated with HLA-B27 related spondyloarthropathies. #AIRRC7 tinyurl.com/airrcmeeting7

UPDATED: Single cell T cell Atlas now has ~1.3M cells from 364 unique samples and 149 individuals with both TCR and GEX zenodo.org/records/126063…. #scTcell_atlas Chan Zuckerberg Initiative

Our Yellow4FLAVI account and website yellow4flavi.eu are now live! We will be posting about our favorite #flavivirus and our #EUproject funded by HaDEA #YellowFever #dengue #vaccine #HorizonEurope

🚀 Check out our first video demo of ImmuneWatch DETECT presented the AIRRC7. Discover how our tool quickly and accurately annotates TCR-epitope interactions. Perfect for enhancing your research! Watch now: youtube.com/watch?v=9QLiyI… #TCR #Immunology #Bioinformatics

Excited to see how ImmuneWatch's DETECT tool helped Dr. Utpal Davé uncover a potential role of CMV in T-cell leukemia. By predicting key antigens, IMW-DETECT provided insights that were confirmed in the lab, paving the way for targeted therapies. youtube.com/clip/UgkxvK77y…
