Scientists created the world’s largest cell-level immune knowledge base that helps in matching the right drugs to the right patients.

In a groundbreaking development, Immunai has been working on mapping the immune system by creating a revolutionary database called AMICA.

The database combines many layers of gene and protein expression data in cells with clinical trial information. So, it can help to match the right drugs to the right patients.Our immune system is like a network: Made up of trillions of cells that flow throughout the body, but with many unknown roads. For example, there is a long list of cell functions that are still not very well understood.

“Then we started working with pharmaceutical companies and hospitals to profile the immune systems of patients undergoing treatments,” he added. This implies they used the data from hospitals, academic research institutions, and pharmaceutical companies. Their goal was to get a bigger picture of immunity activity by analyzing information about cells and their functioning.
