10th Anniversary Event
May 21/22, 2025
Registration will be live shortly
Building on the success of our previous virtual events (Special Event “Response to COVID-19,” Meeting V, and Zooming into the Community II), the joint Meetings and Communications Sub-committee is pleased to present this years’ mid-cycle virtual event. This 2-day meeting marks the 10th anniversary of the founding of the AIRR Community, and the topic of our talks and roundtable is “Specificity”, including how to define it, how to measure it, why does it matter, and how to curate and share data on immune receptor specificity in a FAIR manner.
