        Single cell genomics to understand immune response and make sense of heterogeneity. Uncover rare cell subsets, such as antigen specific cells. Approach is less biased, still get interesting signal. #cascadiaRconf

          Multimodal assays important for treatment. Multiple myeloma- profile B cells. CAR-T important for robust responses in patients. Track immune response with single cell approaches. #cascadiaRconf

            Understanding immunological factors to explain tumor recurrence. Use of data reduction techniques such as UMAP to identify cell subsets associated with metastasis. #cascadiaRconf

              Loss of TNFRSF17 on cancer cells responsible for immune system evasion and associated with tumor recurrence. Antigen presenting genes important as well. #cascadiaRconf

                  Bioconductor data structures very important for success. S4 classes drive this. #cascadiarconf
