Join our expert seminar Multiplex cytokine profiling to improve tuberculosis immune diagnostics on Thursday, February 19, 12:00–13:00 at Forskaren, Stockholm. This session focuses on how advanced multiplex cytokine assays—combining single-cell FluoroSpot and bead-based platforms—can enhance specificity and stratification across latent, active and recent TB infection.

Led by Dr Elin Folkesson from Karolinska Institutet, the seminar highlights key findings from a landmark study on TB immune profiling, including how triple-cytokine readouts (IFN-γ, IL-2, TNF-α) reveal nuances missed by traditional single-parameter tests and how these strategies can refine diagnostics, patient stratification and evaluation of vaccines or therapies. Practical insights into assay selection, interpretation and translational application make this relevant for teams in infectious disease research, clinical immunology, diagnostics development and translational medicine.
