Great work from my dear colleague Marcus Mendes, happy to have been included in this project!
Head's up to immune receptor researchers: our new bioRxiv preprint describes major improvements to epitope-specific TCR/BCR data in the IEDB!
- Re-curation and standardization of receptor data
- Improved receptor search interface
- AIRR-compliant exports

In preparation for #AAI #immunology2025 Iāve designed these super cute labels for #mAcademia nuts - thanks Peters lab for helping out with the labelling!
Find them at booths #535 & #537 with @iedb.bsky.social @cedar-epitopes.bsky.social @hipcproject.bsky.social @airr-knowledge.bsky.social
Hello world!
Have you heard of the AIRR Knowledge Commons yet? The AKC is being established as an integrated resource immune receptors, repertoires, antigen specificity and germline gene information.
Want to know more? We have recently updated our website: airr-knowledge.org
Applications are now open! We are recruiting 20 Assistant Professors in a wide range of subject areas. We're looking for early-career researchers with strong scientific merits and future potential.
š All positions: ki.se/en/about-ki/...
I've got a PSA to the T cell receptor researchers of #immunosky to let you know about a new paper we've just got out: doi.org/10.1016/j.im...
This covers how our field is handling the sets of germline #TCR genes used in our research. Maybe not the most glamorous topic, but itās kind of a big dealā¦
Heads up TCR and immunoglobulin researchers: a nice piece keeping you updated on the efforts undertaken to make sure the TR/IG nomenclatures we use make sense

TCR prediction people, the @airr-community.bsky.social machine learning working group is running a competition (either predicting disease state at a repertoire level, or finding disease-associated receptors) Nov-Dec uio-bmi.github.io/adaptive_imm... Good science, good fun, with prizes to boot
