Abstract
Immune repertoires provide a unique fingerprint reflecting the immune history of individuals, with potential applications in precision medicine. Can this information be used to identify a person uniquely? If it really is a personalised medical record, can it inform us about the outcomes of an infection? I will show how statistical analysis of immune repertoires sequencing experiments can answer these questions.
