The paper investigates whether genetically diverse B-cell receptor responses in simian-HIV infected macaques converge functionally, finding that functional convergence does not require genetic convergence.

This study shows that mitochondrial apoptosis limits non-proliferating and defective B cell states in germinal centers without affecting affinity maturation.

The paper develops a 64-plex single-HLA reporter cell panel and analysis tool to identify and characterize allogeneic HLA-specific B cells in sensitized individuals.

The paper develops fluorescence-barcoded cell lines expressing membrane-anchored influenza neuraminidases to study antibody responses and vaccine efficacy.
