SUMMARY:Limit and potential of adaptive immunity
DESCRIPTION:Active Matter Seminar\n\nSpeaker: Shenshen Wang\, UCLA\n\n\nTitle:  Limit and potential of adaptive immunity\n\nAbstract: The adaptive immune system is able to learn from past experiences to better fit an\nunforeseen future. This is made possible by a diverse and dynamic repertoire of cells\nexpressing unique antigen receptors and capable of rapid Darwinian evolution within an\nindividual. However\, naturally occurring immune responses exhibit limits in efficacy\,\nspeed and capacity to adapt to novel challenges. In this talk\, I will discuss theoretical\nframeworks we developed to (1) explore functional impacts of non-equilibrium antigen\nrecognition\, and (2) identify conditions under which natural selection acting local in time\ncan find adaptable solutions favorable in the long run\, through exploiting environmental\nvariations and functional constraints.
