We study how immune receptors recognise antigens. Our work connects repertoire sequencing, antigen-specificity annotation and TCR–peptide–MHC structure, with applications in infection, vaccination and cancer immunotherapy.

Sequence. Structure. Specificity.

Read the repertoire. Map receptor genes, resolve sequencing errors and analyse T- and B-cell receptor diversity.

Connect receptors to targets. Curate experimentally characterised T-cell receptors and develop methods for specificity annotation.

Model recognition. Study receptor–peptide–MHC interactions and peptide immunogenicity to inform neoantigen research.
