The Immune Epitope Database (IEDB) is an important tool for developing immunotherapies and vaccines. The IEDB is also useful for educators who wish to incorporate undergraduate research in their classrooms. Dr. Sheela Vemu (Waubonsee Community College) has been using the IEDB with her students and as a team leader four of the Antibody Engineering Hackathons. She and her students were able to publish two peer-reviewed articles in the Journal of Advanced Technological Education (J ATE) and one protocol in QUBES. You can learn more about the IEDB in this virtual workshop. Days & times: All days ...
