Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: QSP Industry & Academia Symposium to be held on 10/24/17 from 5 PM - 7:30 PM.
Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) is a mathematical modeling and engineering approach to translational medicine that aims to quantitatively integrate knowledge about therapeutics with an understanding of its mechanism of action in the context of human disease mechanisms. QSP approaches de-risk projects, accelerate the development of best in class therapeutics, and reduce late stage attrition rates. This results in helping industry save money, accelerate timelines, and make better therapeutics, ultimately improving patients’ lives.
The QSP Industry & Academia Symposium is a seminar series for presenting, learning and discussing topics relevant to QSP. The goal of the event is to foster an active community of industry and academia participants interested in this topic and create a forum for sharing successes and challenges.
Please remember to bring a government-issued photo ID for check in.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: 4th Supply Chain Logistics Forum to be held on 10/24/17 - 10/26/17.
Despite a surge in new technologies and improved processes to optimize logistics operations, the oil and gas sector has been a laggard in their adoption.
Leaders from within the logistics and supply chain functions are adopting automation, BI, analytics, IoT and mobility solutions to control costs and improve efficiencies during the downturn. In addition, they have been improving their logistics processes to streamline and rightsize their logistics operations.
O&G Supply Chain Logistics returns to Houston for it’s 4th year this October to provide a unique platform to share successes and lessons learnt during the downturn from companies in the oil and gas supply chain.
Hear practical strategies from operators, oilfield services, equipment and materials suppliers and 3PLs on:
- Embedding technology, automation and analytics to reduce costs, minimize risks and improve efficiency
- Rightsizing and streamlining the supply chain and logistics to industry headwinds
- Embedding compliance and sustainability to mitigate financial and reputational risks
- Leveraging the emergence of materials marketplaces

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Pharmaceutical Microscopy Workshop: Polymorphism to be held on 10/24/17 - 10/26/17.
The choice of the optimum solid-state form is critical for successful pharmaceutical development. Broadly defined, form includes polymorphs, hydrates, solvates, salts, co-crystals etc. Microscopy is well- suited to the study of solid-state form.
This workshop covers the use of the microscope in both early pharmaceutical development when the form is chosen and in later stages of development where the form is monitored for stability.
The material in this workshop is broadly separated by development phase into form discovery and form understanding. Form discovery usually occurs before first time in human (FTIH) into Phase 1. Form understanding generally occurs in Phase 1 and Phase 2, although some work extends into Phase 3.
This workshop emphasizes the role of microscopy in each aspect of form understanding. Although we will discuss solid-state theory and fundamentals, the workshop relies heavily on case studies, demonstrations, and instrument usage.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Immunogenicity & Bioassay Summit 2017 to be held on 10/23/17 - 10/26/17.
Following 8 successful years, the Immunogenicity and Bioassay Summit is expanding to include SIX short courses, TWO training seminars, AND a one-day immersive symposium in addition to our THREE conference tracks. These events provide an invaluable opportunity to learn how the experts manage the challenges of Immunogenicity Assessment, Prediction and Risk Mitigation, as well as Bioanalytical and Bioassay Development. Once again, attendees will hear from the regulatory authorities and be able to discuss their challenges with them. NEW this year is a focus on Bioassays for Immuno-Oncology, Immunology for Scientists in Biotherapeutic Discovery and Development, and an Introduction to Design of Experiments. The 2017 summit features:
- 250+ Global Attendees
- 75 Scientific Presentations & Case Studies, including FDA
- Exhibit & Poster Hall
- Track-hopping allowed for concurrent conferences
- Panel Discussions

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: CHSL's Antibody Engineering, Phage Display Immune Repertoire Analysis to be held on 10/17/17 - 10/30/17.
Advances in the generation and selection of antibodies from combinatorial libraries allow for the rapid production of antibodies from immune and non-immune sources. This intensive laboratory/lecture course will focus on the construction of combinatorial antibody libraries expressed on the surface of filamentous phage and the subsequent selection of desired antibodies from the library. Students will learn the theoretical and practical aspects of constructing combinatorial libraries from immune and non-immune sources as well as the construction of synthetic antibody libraries. Antigen-specific recombinant monoclonal antibodies will be selected from the library. Production, purification and characterization of antibody fragments expressed in E. coli will also be covered.
The lecture series, presented by course faculty and a number of invited speakers, will emphasize theory and practice of antibody display technologies, expression of antibodies in E. coli and mammalian cells, antibody structure and function, bacterial display of antibodies and other ligand-binding domains, the immunobiology of the antibody response, and the use of monoclonal antibodies for therapy including the design of chimeric antigen receptor T cells. We will also discuss principles and protocols for generation and analysis of immune repertoires determined by Next Generation Sequencing.
