Protein & Antibody World Congress 2023 Europe

London, United Kingdom

Monday 13th - Tuesday 14th November 2023

Paradigm Global Events is very pleased to welcome you to our upcoming PROTEIN AND ANTIBODY Wordl CONGRESS 2023 Europe For decades, protein engineering has been a powerful tool in biotechnology for generating vast numbers of useful enzymes for industrial applications. Protein engineering aims to harness the existing molecular- level knowledge of how biology functions and alter these functions to improve the useful value of biological systems. The adaptation of newer mutagenesis techniques and computational design tools have greatly aided the development of high throughput platforms, discovery of new target proteins, and refinement of protein and non-protein design and engineering.

Protein is considered in extensive area of therapeutic space from target enzymes through to engineered versions of naturally occurring human proteins. But the most interesting and rapid moving group of proteins are antibodies. This area has grown from early days of monoclonal antibodies to a field of many engineered by-products. Today, antibodies are being engineered into a range of different novel drug classes, from ADC that deliver highly potent chemotherapy agents to kill cancer cells to multivalent antibodies that bind different antigens simultaneously.

The Global Protein Engineering market size is expected to be worth around 9,329 Million USD by 2032 from 2,961 Million USD in 2022, growing at a CAGR of 13.60% during the forecast period from 2023 to 2032. (Market.us)

Various factors such as the increasing need for personalised medicines, evolution in biopharmaceuticals, and the increasing industrial application of proteins are several factors steering the demand for protein engineering. However, as protein engineering involves complex processes, the associated high development cost can pose a restrain to the widespread adoption. Protein modification especially in gene editing also requires ethical and safety considerations. Rigorous regulations and public
apprehension in regard to genetic modifications can present challenges to market growth.

We are gathering high caliber expert speakers to participate and share their knowledge and expertise through Keynotes, Presentations, and Panel discussions.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Decentralized Clinical Trials World Congress 2023 Europe.

Sincerely yours,

Jocelyn Raguindin
Conference Director
