2010 Diary Dates! Conference & Exhibition: 27-28 October 2010 Pre-Conference Workshops: 26 October 2010 Post-Conference Workshops: 29 October 2010
Join us to explore the latest advances in the design and development of cell lines for increased production levels and learn how to rationalise your processes, decrease production costs and optimise your downstream processing to match the increasing demands of high titers. It is estimated that 30% of new drugs likely to be licensed during the next decade will be based on antibody products. Join us to explore advances in the design and development of cell lines for increased production levels; learning how to rationalise your processes, decrease production costs and optimise your downstream processing to match the increasing demands of high titres – don’t miss:
Key reasons to attend Informa Life Sciences’ Antibody Production and Downstream Processing:
· Addressing the bottleneck at downstream and ways to handle the high titres between upstream and downstream will be reviewed by ETH Zurich and Lonza
· Reducing timelines and manufacturing costs by streamlining development will be evaluated from Genentech and Pfizer; Tools and techniques for optimising platform approaches from Boehringer Ingelheim, Sandoz and Rentschler
· How can downstream match the increasing demands from high titres from upstream? Boehringer Ingelheim and Professor Massimo Morbidelli, ETH Zurich will discuss their latest findings
· Within our cell line development and engineering session hear Professor David James, University of Sheffield, Mark Uden, GSK and Emma Hargreaves from the University of Kent examine their latest findings for antibodies
