Target prioritization .md

Re-construct Schmidt et al. (2022) and extend it toward immunotherapy target prioritization.

A genome-wide phenotypic CRISPRa screen was used to find transcriptional cell states that correlate with causal drivers of proteomic IFNG expression. The human pipeline calls positive IFNG hits and joins them with Perturb-seq cell states. Agent-tracked scripts then map those hits to mechanisms of action, score druggability and drug-repurposing candidates, and re-rank targets by enrichment in IFNG-high transcriptional states.
