Scientific Abstract
T cells are an integral part of adaptive immunity, which forms the basis of protection from infections after vaccination. While B cell and antibody responses are well understood, little is known about which antigen-reactive T cells are recruited after primary and booster vaccination, as well as into long-lasting resting memory. In this project, we will investigate these questions in SARS-CoV-2 vaccinees by state-of-the-art T cell receptor repertoire profiling and functionality assessments.
