Introducing a paradigm shift in TCR-based diagnostics
Each infection, vaccine, cancer cell or autoimmune disease can leave a telltale signature in your collection of T cells, the TCR repertoire. That is a consequence of how your immune system recognises and memorises intruders. We at ImmuneWatch and others firmly believe that by tapping into this immunological memory, groundbreaking new diagnostics can be developed. […]
Watch out for negative data bias in machine learning
Machine learning, with its potential to revolutionise the field of immunology, isn’t immune to the pitfalls of biased data. That is a cautious lesson discussed in a new academic publication by ImmuneWatch co-founders Prof. Kris Laukens and Prof. Pieter Meysman. In this paper, they discuss recent work by Gao et al., who sought to predict […]
