Successful AIRR Community Meeting V

January 15, 2021 by Pam Borghardt

The fifth AIRR Community meeting (#AIRRC5) was held virtually Dec 8–10, 2020. The theme of this meeting was “Zooming in to the AIRR Community” connecting the global AIRR research community despite the pandemic for a series of Working Group & Sub-committee presentations, scientific sessions, interactive poster sessions, software tool demonstrations and networking events.

AIRR Community meetings are the premier event for research on adaptive immune-receptor repertoires. They are also the primary location where the AIRR-Community’s Working Groups and Sub-committees come together in one location to discuss how to push standardization in AIRR-sequencing (AIRR-seq) data and analysis forward.  All video recordings can be found here https://www.youtube.com/airrcommunity. All presentations can be found in the AIRR Community Resources section of the website. 

Just as the biology of AIRR is high-dimensional, this meeting’s success was as well!  We gathered some of the numbers that best describe the success of the #AIRRC5 meeting.

  • 1 Keynote speaker: Ignacio Sanz (Emory University School of Medicine, USA)
  • 3 Basic Science Presentations, 3 Biomedical Science Presentations
  • Attendees from 18 countries and 6 continents
  • 161 Registrants 
  • 5 Sponsors 
  • 6 Invited Speakers 
  • 2 Judging Panels 
  • 4 Short Talk Presenters 
  • 28 Poster Presenters 
  • 4 Software Demonstrators 
  • 9 Moderators 
  • 19 Community Presenters 
  • This was the second time a twitter hashtag was used for an AIRR Community Meeting (#AIRRV)
  • We achieved the milestone of more than 100 subscribers for the AIRRC YouTube channel thus enabling a custom YouTube URL: https://www.youtube.com/airrcommunity 
  • In addition to the main meeting, two free pre-meetings were held with over 175 participants
    • Pre-meeting 1: “AIRR-seq in the Pandemic” co-hosted by the AIRR Community and Tsinghua University in China which took place on December 5th/6th
    • Pre-meeting 2 “AIRR-seq Biological Standards and Workflows“ which was hosted by the Biological Resources Working Group on December 7th.
