Practical Approached to Forced Degradation Studies for Biologics
Don't miss this guide to the best ways to design raised temperature, freeze-thaw, light and physical stress tests. Identify the optimal times to perform forced degradation studies, compile study protocols for example biologics and use these techniques to reveal major degradation pathways.

Use of Forced Degradation Studies for the Validation of Stability
Indicating Methods for Biotechnology Products
Regulators are becoming more strict on the requirement that degradation methods are validated as stability-indicating. Experimental data for this are often incomplete or non-existant, but this workshop will provide attendees with the crucial skills needed for optimal product method development and validation

Protein Aggregation: Prediction, Detection and Prevention
Our experts will guide you through data integration to help you understand and predict aggreagtion kinetics. You will learn methods for early detection of aggregates, how to assess risk levels from in-vitro data and finally to implement prevention strategies.
