As SARS-CoV-2 continues to evolve, one lesson is painfully clear: immunity today may not guarantee protection tomorrow. Viruses are experts at mutating into countless variants to evade detection or neutralization by the immune system. In the race to keep up with this “immune escape”, researchers have largely focused on reactive strategies—testing vaccines against variants that […] The post How Computational Design Can Predict the Next Viral Variant—and Help Us Prepare appeared first...| Promega Connections
In the genomics era, the promise of precision medicine and tailored diagnostics is only as good as the datasets, which makes it imperative that those sets reflect the diversity of the human population. Populations from the African continent, the most genomically diverse region in the world, are underrepresented in current genomic data sets. Nowhere is […]| Promega Connections
