Our 5th annual Cell Based Assays event includes a BRAND NEW pre-conference workshop; “Stem Cells in Drug Discovery”. This is an excellent opportunity for delegates to get to grips with increasing the role of stem cells in drug discovery and understand how to optimise their use in assays and screening to determine efficacy and levels of toxicity.
Cell Based Assays is the only event to address novel imaging technologies; don’t miss out on this opportunity to hear successful case studies from industry figureheads on optimising florescent protein tagging as well as label free technologies to make sure your organisation is not left behind in this fast moving industry!
A case study led agenda focusing on:
Heads of Department, Directors, Managers, Team Leaders, Researchers and Scientists from:
• Screening
• Pharmacology
• Lead discovery technologies
• Molecular and cellular biology
• Biological technologies
• Lead generation and optimisation
