It's not the models, it's the data!. We show that a substantial proportion of a widely used TCR-pMHC database does not functionally validate, causing underestimation of performance of TCR-pMHC prediction models.

Alongside TCRvdb, we introduced TCRbridge - an AlphaFold3-based model for predicting TCR-pMHC specificity (built upon AlphaBridge). The code is now live on GitHub 👉

Incredibly excited and grateful for the opportunity to present at Antwerp TCR in 3 weeks. There’s no place more relevant to showcase what we have been up to. If you want to have a sneak preview; check out the thread of @MariusMessemak1 & our pre-print

Accurate prediction of TCR specificity forms a holy grail in immunology and large language models and computational structure predictions provide a path to achieve this. Importantly, current TCR-pMHC...

#ATCR25 acceptance notifications just went out! We had 76 abstracts of very high quality, but could only accept 8! for short talks (so 10%). Huge thanks to our review committee for making though decisions. Really excited where the #TCR field is going based on the abstracts I saw!.

Preprint alert 🚨🚨. Large language models can predict TCR - pMHC reactivity!🧬🔬. Proud to have worked on this project with @MariusMessemak1 and all other amazing co-authors.

Excited to share STAPLER, a language model to predict TCR – pMHC reactivity that outperforms prior models. And for ML aficionados: Description of a new data leakage problem inherent to a common negative data generation strategy. 🧵👇.
