This symposium focuses on the most current advances in B cell biology and in understanding of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs). Particular emphasis will be placed on many new aspects of the mechanisms underlying B cell development and the latest breakthroughs in the generation and characterization of broadly neutralizing antibodies against the highly antigenically diverse viruses, such as the HIV, influenza virus, et al. The symposium will help students, postdocs, investigators and clinicians to better understand the mechanisms by which these…

Single cell genomics is rapidly emerging as a revolutionary technology transforming many fields of biological research. Through its many applications (single cell genome sequencing, single cell transcriptomics, various single cell epigenetic profiling approaches), researchers can characterize the genetic and functional properties of individual cells in their native conditions, leading to numerous experimental and clinical opportunities. As technology is leaping forward, many critical questions are arising: Which technologies are going to set the standard in the field? How many cells needed…
