PI Contribution | My supervisor and I contribute expertise in statistics and machine learning methodology, either undertaking or guiding such analysis of immune repertoire datasets produced by the team at the Universtiy of Cambridge. This includes projects undertaken by students at the University of Cambridge. |
Collaborator Contribution | The team at the University of Cambridge is led by Professor Elizabeth Soilleux, who is a clinical pathologist. She contributes essential clinical expertise and context to projects that relate to diagnosis, such as my PhD project. The team undertake immune repertoire library preparation for sequencing, which results in immune repertoire datasets with cases and controls for analysis. They also share knowledge about the library preparation and sequencing process which improves the quality of our analysis by influencing how we process the datasets. |
Impact | We published a review paper together: "Utility of Bulk T-Cell Receptor Repertoire Sequencing Analysis in Understanding Immune Responses to COVID-19." |
