Identifying Reliable Antibodies for Use in Immuno-oncology Research
Event Date: June 1, 2021
Identifying reliable antibodies for use in immuno-oncology research is critical to address its recent growth and rapid expansion into clinical trials as mistakes in antibody validation impact patient health and wellbeing. Dr. Brian McWilliams, IP/WB Manager at Fortis Life Sciences, discusses the expanding need for validated antibodies in immuno-oncology.
Learning objectives:
- Understand the significance of antibody validation, including its needs and challenges
- Gain insight into the antibody industry validation approach and learn steps to validate antibodies in your lab
- How a collaborative approach to validation between researchers and manufacturers presents the best opportunity for long-term solutions
This webinar was originally presented at the Immuno-Oncology 2021 virtual event on the expanding need for validated antibodies.
