Antibody response

Research Question

  1. Identify antigen specific antibody responses to Mmm molecules as this should help in understanding mechanisms that lead to disease and immunity.

Research Gaps and Challenges

  1. Lack of assays to measure functionally relevant immune responses.
  2. Lack of disease stage biomarkers.

Solution Routes

  1. Develop in vitro and in vivo options for evaluating host responses to infection.
  2. Passive antibody transfer experiments.
