Mapping the COVID-19 T-cell response at a single-cell level

When: April 27, 2021 Time: 3:00 pm

Understanding COVID-19 immune response

While most COVID-19 patients are asymptomatic or display mild symptoms, some patients develop severe clinical symptoms. The pathogenic basis for this difference in disease severity among patients is poorly understood. Developing a better understanding of immune response across patient populations is crucial to understanding these differences, and to the development of future vaccines capable of targeting novel COVID-19 variants.

This webinar will present cutting edge research and provide insights from the intersection between three areas of intense current focus – COVID-19 clinical research, single cell analysis and the measurement of T-cell response.

Attendees will leave with new approaches and ideas for achieving in-depth characterization of the CD8+ T-cell-mediated response to COVID-19 infection, which will support (1) the development of better molecular and targeted therapies, and (2) the development of better vaccination strategies.

This webinar consists of 2 presentations, followed by a Q&A session.



Talk 1: Dissecting CD8+ T-cell pathology of severe SARS-CoV-2 infection by single-cell epitope mapping
