15 years after the first AIRR-seq sequencing, what have we learned in the basic and biomedical research fields? What is next? Thank you for joining us at the AIRR-C Meeting in Porto this June, the premiere event for gathering the leading experts and scientific and industry innovators in the generation, curation and analysis of antibody/B-cell and T-cell receptor repertoire data.

- A special thanks to our official hosting partner INESC TEC!
- The meeting was held at the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Porto.
- Poster Sessions and Selected Talks
- Thank you to everyone for the overwhelming response to the call for posters and short contributed talks!
- Due to the sheer volume of interest (more than 100 posters were submitted!), we increased the number of short contributed talks from 6 to 10!
- Software Demonstrations and Deep Dive Tool Tutorials
- We had hands-on, one hour “deep dive” tutorials as well as short 10 minute “lightning” demonstrations of innovative software and tools.
- Early Career & Student Activities
- Networking is in the AIRR: A speed networking early career event! This mentor/mentee session catered to early career scientists interested in networking with established AIRR researchers from a variety of sectors and areas of research.
- Career Development Panel Discussions focussed on career paths. This session was a great opportunity to hear and ask questions about the many ways to be involved in AIRR research and the pioneering work of the AIRR Community.
- Industry Networking & Hot Topics Round Tables
