I do vaccine development with a focus on precision vaccinology! My background is immunoglobulin genetics and population diversity. I also like to advocate for science and do things with my community :)

But, tumultuous. The pre-print does not state a conflict of interest. You as an author are responsible for this. Is there no conflict of interest? Who are the independent authors Danice Hertz and Brianne Dressen? You thought people would not recognise these names? They are from React19. react19.org

The issue isn’t the subject; studies matter. But this one is flawed: with haphazard cohorts, too small, and finding nothing. CoI should be declared, and some of the authors fuel "misunderstandings" by making up conclusions and misusing the preprint. This isn’t good science. bsky.app/profile/marc...

Did you know that human immunoglobulin constant genes are crazy diverse? It's got me thinking...Proud of Uddalok Jana! And grateful for collabs @guryaari.bsky.social @williamlees.bsky.social @ayeletperes.bsky.social @e-engelbrecht1.bsky.social @yscientist.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The human immunoglobulin heavy chain constant gene locus is enriched for large complex structural variants and coding polymorphisms that vary in frequency among human populations
The immunoglobulin heavy chain constant (IGHC) domain of antibodies (Ab) is responsible for a variety of effector functions critical to Ab mediated immunity. In human, this domain is encoded by genes ...
