2nd Annual Proteins Congress (PC1009)
Venue: Berlin, Germany
Event Date/Time: Nov 29, 2009 | End Date/Time: Nov 30, 2009 |
Description
With the ever-expanding protein therapeutic market, there is a need for the bio/pharma industry to reassess the technology, discovery and delivery trends. Protein expression & characterisation systems are rapidly evolving, and there is more pressure to harvest larger, purer quantities of product to support research pipelines. More efficient methods are also needed to identify and analyse proteins involved in disease populations with the aim to discover novel diagnostic tools and treatments. The conference also looks at effective strategies in protein assays and microarrays and data mining in discovery.
Over two days, the 2 events will attract over 120 senior-level decision makers working in Proteins development from the UK, Europe and US. This prestigious event provides a forum for practitioners and prominent innovators to learn more about key solutions being provided to their industry, network with their peers, and address key industry concerns through a series of cutting edge conference presentations in a professional yet relaxed environment, during a 2 day conference programme.
THE EVENT
In keeping with Oxford Global’s highly successful life sciences series, an expert panel of 45 speakers will present a full conference programme covering the following key topics include:
