#TCR and #human diseases “We are all smart. Distinguish yourself by being kind.”—Charles Gordon. Studying T cells in brain doesn't make me a neuroimmunologist!

If one #develops a #new #science #technology -perhaps it was developed to address a specific question. Doesn't mean that that technology needs to be applied to every scientific problem...just because one has that technology/method!

When it #comes to #TCR #sequencing -the word I #detest is #oligoclonality -what does that even mean? It means something if one #sequenced #enough otherwise it means #nothing

In this era of #sequencing -it's easy to refer and say -this #study is #done and #not #novel! But as a reviewer if one reads the papers #carefully a lot of them are done so #poorly or done to show an instance, #lacking #generalizability.

I think about this a lot -especially during #grant and #paper #review -the given #proposal #paper is not #novel because someone else proposed that idea (in the grant/paper) before and executed poorly?
