Talk
Applications of Functional Antibody Repertoire beyond Research
Serimmune has developed a novel technology for assessing personal immune response through antibody repertoires. We will describe the application of this technology in the clinical space for diagnosis of immune agents in diverse diseases and syndromes as well as how these data may lead to better health outcomes in the future.


 Session Abstract – PMWC 2022 Silicon Valley


Sequencing technologies are continuously improving, making it easier to obtain more in-depth molecular information than ever before. Emerging single-cell multi-omics sequencing technologies allow the capture of multiple modalities from a cell, including its epigenome, transcriptome, epitranscriptome, and proteome. This allows research into the heterogeneity of many biological mechanisms, and insights into complex molecular mechanisms that underpin disease.
