I am primarily interested in understanding vaccine-induced T-cell responses through advanced computational immunology approaches. My current work focuses on developing a platform to analyze T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoires, aiming to identify sequence motifs associated with immunodominant epitopes. By combining experimental data and bioinformatics, I seek to uncover patterns that deepen our understanding of adaptive immunity and guide the design of more effective vaccination strategies.
