Antibody Engineering & Therapeutics Europe 2019

June 24, 2019 by FrancesB

Thank you for joining us at The Antibody Society’s 2nd annual Antibody Engineering & Therapeutics Europe meeting (AE&TE) June 11-13 2019. The meeting was a great opportunity for Society members to connect with industry and academic scientists and executives from Europe and around the world focused on antibody and protein therapeutic discovery and development.

As always, The Antibody Society’s members designed the scientific program and acted as session Chairs. The meeting featured sessions on Turning Antibody Leads into Drugs, Recent Advances in Immuno-Oncology Approaches, Bioinformatics and Repertoires in Antibody Discovery and Development, Antibody Therapeutics for Autoimmune and Neurodegenerative Diseases, Clinical Developments in Antibody Therapeutics, and New Antibody Formats and Effector Functions.

The Society sponsored a poster competition for students and postdocs, with winners receiving complimentary registration, support for travel expenses, and an opportunity to present at the conference. Congratulations to the winners, Roberta Lotti and Amiram Sananes!

“I would really thank The Antibody Society for giving me this opportunity to grow and enlarge my research horizon.This award gave me the opportunity to get in touch with a new research community and, as I hope, to enlarge my contacts and my collaborations. ” – Roberta Lotti

“I believe it’s important for students to attend these conferences and come out from their shell once in a while, and in doing so get new ideas while enjoying sunny Amsterdam!” – Amiram Sananes

Antibody Engineering & Therapeutics Europe: The European Meeting of The Antibody Society

June 6, 2019 by FrancesB

We look forward to seeing you June 11-13, 2019 at The Antibody Society’s 2nd annual Antibody Engineering & Therapeutics Europe meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Please join us for the Society’s networking session at Booth #25 at 5:45pm on  Wednesday June 12th. 

At this session, you’ll connect with industry and academic scientists and executives from Europe and around the world who focus on antibody and protein therapeutic discovery and development. And you can get a free T shirt!

The keynote speakers are Jane Osbourn, Ph.D., (Vice President R&D and Site Leader of Medimmune), who will discuss  antibody therapeutic developments, pipeline and progress at Medimmune, and Hans Clevers, M.D., Ph.D., (Group Leader, Hubrecht Institute for Developmental Biology and Stem Cell Research and Professor of Molecular Genetics, University Medical Center Utrecht and Utrecht University), who will discuss Lgr5 stem cell-based organoids and their applications in cancer research.

In addition, the meeting features sessions on Turning Antibody Leads into Drugs, Recent Advances in Immuno-Oncology Approaches, Bioinformatics and Repertoires in Antibody Discovery and Development, Antibody Therapeutics for Autoimmune and Neurodegenerative Diseases, Clinical Developments in Antibody Therapeutics, and New Antibody Formats and Effector Functions.

Society members receive a 15% discount on the registration fee!

The agenda can be downloaded here.

We hope to see you at Booth #25!

AIRR Community Meeting IV at the University of Genoa – Save the date!

September 13, 2018 by FrancesB

AIRR Community Meeting IV: Bridging the Gaps
11-15 May 2019, University of Genoa, Italy

Invitation and Meeting Agenda

Information on past AIRR meetings

The theme of this meeting, “Bridging the Gaps” addresses technological gaps between the amounts of accumulated data and our ability to process them, and the need for more involvement of stakeholder communities (industry, clinicians, patent communities) for uptake of the standards developed by the AIRR Community. We have confirmed two outstanding Keynote speakers – Dr. Sai Reddy from ETH Zurich and Dr. Antonio Lanzavecchia from IRB Bellinzona. Two planned panel discussions will include representatives from other institutions and companies that work with AIRR-seq data. In addition, two “challenge” sessions are planned to address the above-mentioned gaps. Two pre-meeting workshops will be available to teach the basics of immunology, and of AIRR-seq data analysis for beginners. Also planned are two poster sessions; and two tool and software demos sessions.

 

Stay tuned for more information!
