Introduction: Visuocognitive performance is closely related to expertise in chess and has been scrutinized by several investigations in the last decades. The results indicate that experts' decision-making benefits from the chunking process, perception and visual strategies. Despite numerous studies which link these concepts, most of these investigations have employed common research designs that do not use real chess play, but create artificial laboratory conditions via screen-based chess stimuli and obtrusive stationary eye tracking with or without capturing of decision-making or virtual reality settings.

However, the traditional process of staining cells with fluorescently labeled conjugated antibodies for IFC analysis is time consuming, expensive, and potentially harmful to cell viability. To streamline experimental workflows and reduce costs, it is crucial to identify the most relevant channels for downstream analysis.

Most of them alter immune cells and act within the immunological synapse; an essential cell-to-cell interaction to direct the humoral immune response. Although many antibody designs are generated and evaluated, a high-throughput tool for systematic antibody characterization and prediction of function is lacking.

It becomes obvious that chess expertise is a multidimensional phenomenon related predominantly to experience. Under consideration of chess expertise categorization, we conducted two priming experiments expanding existing designs by gradually increasing the target and task complexity.

The roles of its family members, however, remain largely unknown. Here, we analyzed -deficient mice, which develop hypertrophic lymph nodes.
