| Response from Dr. Holodniy
 This is a fairly large field, with many published papers. The two major areas of inquiry are assay issues and biological phenomena. Assay issues include things like reproducibility, precision, and subtype detection. Biological issues relate to things like false positives, blips during treatment, and increases during immunization or other ongoing infections. | ||||||||
