Rapid Identification of Auto-Antigens in Autoimmune Diseases
The team is seeking new platform technologies or concepts which lead to identification of antigens recognized by T-cells involved in autoimmune responses. The objective of the group is to deconvolute the autoimmune T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire functionally with respect to unknown cognate peptide: HLA complexes. We will use high-throughput screening approaches coupling sequence to specificity in order to identify critical points of attack in the treatment of autoimmune diseases.
