Webinar Description:
This webinar will demonstrate the power of high-throughput SPR imaging to uncover unique epitope behaviors using antibodies targeting a viral protein as an example. In a handful of epitope mapping, binning, and receptor competition experiments, these
studies accurately identified trends and behaviors that previously required multiple decades and technologies to accomplish. A real time analysis of epitope binning data will also be performed to emphasize the novel data reduction capabilities
available to rapidly inform decisions.
Learning Objectives:
- The critical role antibody epitope plays in functional and clinical outcomes
- What makes Wasatch Microfluidics’ SPRi platform truly unique for epitope characterization
- The power of screening large panels of mAbs to elucidate meaningful differences in epitope engagement
- How data analysis tools for epitope characterization can drive therapeutic discovery
Speakers:
Adam Miles
