New paper alert! 🚨
sciCSR developed by @FraternaliLab, @JosefNg1 and colleagues is a computational workflow that uses scRNA-seq data to predict class switch recombination events and B cell dynamics.

Dongjun & Joseph at #bsi2025 with poster on this! Poster P005
Great talks by both Oriol and Joseph at #ELIXIR #3dBioinfo meeting at Barcelona!

Another preprint @FraternaliLab: We explored how the antibody framework (i.e. parts of variable region away from Ab-Ag interface) can be exploited to fine-tune antibody effector functions. V enjoyable in vitro/in silico collab @ffrancafrat @SophiaKaragiann biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
🚨 New preprint on our new approach (IndeLLM) to score pathogenicity of insertions/deletions biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Happy to share new work @FraternaliLab led by @Dongjun_Guo - exploring how antibody heavy and light chains form specific pairs. We fine-tuned an antibody language model to predict pairing, and asked how pairing propensities change during B cell maturation and in diseases.
Proud to be part of this exceptional mentoring programme💪 @ELIXIREurope

Well done to Izzy for winning a prize for her presentation on the single cell analysis of B cells in lung cancer!!👏🫁🧬#WIRM – at Davos, Switzerland
Xmas gift 🎁 came early for us: New review came out on @COSB_CRSB where we talked about structures of different antibody isotypes & how to model and study them! Feat. a great deal of fun drawing antibodies in the style of ladders and snakes! Free access at

Xmas outing feat. a walk across Hertfordshire countryside on a cold wintery day followed by pub! – at Hitchin, England

Very proud to finally see this recent work from my lab out in Nature Methods!
Thanks to a fantastic collaborator like @JosefNg1 and an enthusiastic group of Immunologists!
