The IEDB is also useful for educators who wish to incorporate undergraduate research in their classrooms. Dr. Sheela Vemu (Waubonsee Community College) has been using the IEDB with her students and as a team leader four of the Antibody Engineering Hackathons. She and her students were able to publish two peer-reviewed articles in the Journal of Advanced Technological Education (J ATE) and one protocol in QUBES. You can learn more about the IEDB in this virtual workshop. 

Topics include:

• Overview of the IEDB curation process, database structure, and content. The different database query features will be demonstrated and a research example will be provided.
• Overview of the epitope prediction and analysis tools for both the Next-Generation tools and classic Analysis Resource.
• Specialized topics will be covered including specific tools, the IEDB application programming interface (API), and other areas of research, such as HIV and cancer.
