New junior research group started at TWINCORE
Yannic Bartsch has been researching "Antiviral Antibody Omics" since January
Read moreIn this project, antibodies that help to ward off infections are being investigated in more detail. The aim is to find characteristics that have a protective effect against certain pathogens by comparing different antibody profiles in infections and vaccinations.
The project is researching how the effect of monoclonal antibodies can be improved. These antibodies are already being used successfully against viruses. The aim is to optimize the so-called Fc effector functions in order to fight infections even more effectively.
