Andreas Weise, senior account manager at Genovac, will deliver a presentation featuring PhenomeX's Beacon platform entitled "Enhance and Expand Anti-ID Antibody Diversity and Affinity Through Genetic Immunization."

Date: Tuesday, September 26 from 2:20 p.m. - 2:50 p.m. ET

Abstract: Learn how Genovac identified and characterized highly diverse high-affinity anti-idiotypic antibodies that enable candidate therapeutic antibody PK/PD studies by leveraging their cutting-edge immunization strategies and world-class expertise in adapting new animal species onto PhenomeX's optofluidic single B cell screening on the Beacon platform. 

Annual Festival of Biologics Basel Conference & Exhibition

PhenomeX will participate in The Festival of Biologics conference held from October 10-12, 2023, in Basel, Switzerland. The Festival of Biologics brings together pharma, biotech, and academic and research institutes, as well as their partners across the value chain in the areas of antibodies, immunotherapy and biosimilars. 

PhenomeX will feature its optofluidic and proteomic technologies at the conference in booth #910, and attendees can explore demonstrations and learn more about how PhenomeX's products can advance and accelerate our understanding of cellular function along the continuum of scientific discovery, bioprocessing, clinical research, and immunotherapy development. 

PhenomeX technology is highlighted in a poster presentation entitled "Rapid Discovery of Functional Human Memory B Cell-Derived Antibodies for SARS-CoV-2 Using the Beacon Optofluidic System."

In addition, PhenomeX will lead a presentation highlighting how optofluidics can accelerate antibody discovery workflows.

Jonathan Didier, senior field applications scientist at PhenomeX, will present: "Rapid Discovery of Clinically Relevant Antibodies using the PhenomeX Beacon," as part of the Cell Culture & Upstream Processing conference track.

Date: October 11, 2023 from 4:50 p.m. – 5:10 p.m. CET

Abstract: Opto^® Plasma B Discovery Workflows on the Beacon optofluidic systems offer customers an attractive alternative in rapid function-first screening that allows antibody discovery in multiple species and physiologically relevant repertoires without significant investment or limitations that exist in hybridoma or phage display. In this presentation, participants will learn how PhenomeX and its customers have used existing Opto Plasma B Discovery products and protocols to accelerate antibody discovery for their clients, and how these were adapted to different species to achieve a broader sequence diversity to meet client objectives.
