My research uses biophysical modeling and machine learning to probe how the antibody response changes with each viral exposure, with the ultimate goals of making the antibody response programmable and guiding it to a maximally-protective configuration. My lab will initially build off my expertise with influenza, but future efforts will generalize these methods to other viruses such as HIV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 that are of interest to public health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talk Title: Machine Learning the Rules od Antibody-Virus Interactions Tal did his PhD at Caltech with Rob Phillips, whose lab specializes in developing models that don\u2019t just fit data, but provide deep insights into the underlying mechanisms.
