Publisher's Synopsis
Computational immunology is an expanding field at the intersection of immunology and computational biology. It utilizes mathematical and computational approaches to analyze complex immune system dynamics. Using large-scale data from high-throughput technologies like genomics, proteomics, and single-cell sequencing, it generates immune response models, maps cell interactions, and predicts outcomes. These predictive models aid in understanding immune system function in health and disease, explaining mechanisms of critical immune-related disorders such as autoimmunity, cancer and infectious diseases. Additionally, computational tools enable the design and optimization of immunotherapies, vaccines and diagnostic strategies by simulating immune responses to various stimuli and interventions. Advances in computational techniques and immunology promise to revolutionize our understanding of the immune system and accelerate the development of innovative immunotherapies for various diseases. This book contains some path-breaking studies in the field of computational immunology. The topics included in this book are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. Scientists and students actively engaged in this field will find this book full of crucial and unexplored concepts.
