Immunophenotyping of T and B-Cell Receptors; by Alex Chenchik, President, Cellecta, Inc 

T-cell receptor (TCR) and B-cell receptor (BCR) repertoire profiling holds great potential for understanding the disease mechanisms and development of new therapeutics for infectious disease, auto-immunity and immuno-oncology applications. However, this potential could be greatly improved by combining information about receptor clonotypes with immunophenotypes of T and B cells. To facilitate these studies, we developed a novel technology for combined profiling of all human TCR and BCR variable regions and phenotypic characterization of immune cells.
