Computer Science Meets the Alpaca Immune System

Original: When computer science meets the alpaca immune system

Tufts University is highlighting research that combines computational methods with alpace-derived antibodies. Alpacas produce tiny antibodies known as nanobodies, which scientists can study with computer modeling to design new treatments and diagnostics. The university's news outlet is drawing attention to how this unusual pairing of biology and computer science is opening new directions in biomedical research.

Why now: A university news feature on an unusual but promising research pairing is drawing attention to advances in antibody-based medicine.
