CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR SPEAKER PROPOSALS
Fourth Annual
OPTIMIZING CELL LINE DEVELOPMENT
Enhancing Expression
August 22-23, 2012
As more protein-based products, such as antibodies, head into development, the need to refine processes for optimizing cell line development increases. Reducing the time needed to develop cell lines and identify high-expressing clones is essential for trimming a project’s overall costs. The “Optimizing Cell Line Development” meeting features experts sharing their protocols and case studies illustrating the steps they have taken to reach enhanced expression. Their insights and experiences will provide real-world details to help you conquer the challenges of cell line development. As you seek to enhance your skills and knowledge, make time to join the information exchange and networking with colleagues from around the world who share common cellular goals on the path to protein production.
