First COVID-19 AIRR-seq study available through iReceptor Gateway

In collaboration with the AIRR Community, we are pleased to announce the first COVID-19 AIRR-seq study available for searching and download through the iReceptor Gateway. 8.9 Million annotated sequences from the paper B cell clonal expansion and convergent antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 from Nielsen, et al. has been loaded into the AIRR COVID-19 repository. We expect a number of other papers to be added to this repository in the near future.
