The European Immunogenicity Platform (EIP) is a central meeting place for scientists and biopharmaceutical companies in Europe. The goal of the EIP is to improve knowledge and expertise in immunogenicity. This is achieved through collaboration between scientists and industry experts. The EIP works with companies, institutes, and professionals involved in…

The Cell & Gene Meeting on the Med is a premier European conference focusing on advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs). ATMPs are a revolutionary class of treatments that involve modifying a patient’s cells to fight disease. This conference unites researchers, developers, manufacturers, and other stakeholders from around the world who…

Clients typically will come to us saying that they have a therapy, and it is going to address these targets, this disease, to treat certain patients. They want to know how we can best understand what’s happening and how the immune system will respond. We need to know what cells…

One of the coolest things we’re doing here at KCAS Bio is definitely validating new instruments and new software. We start off with the Cytek systems of course, and then we’re adding in FCS Express, we’re applying both of those tools ’cause that’s really all they are at the…

KCAS has recently moved from a space that was extremely tight – even for the operations we had at the time – to an enormous new modern lab building that is purpose-built for the type of work that allows all of our workflows to be more efficient, more scalable,…

For the last decade or so, the outsourcing of crucial research functions by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies has become increasingly common and has resulted in the rapid growth of the Contract Research Organization (CRO) industry. But the selection of the best CRO partner to work on your critical research programs…

The newest episode of “The Conversational Flow” has Brian and Adam talking about the concepts around Receptor Occupancy and all the deceptively simple questions people often have about them, as well as the important but sometimes difficult answers to those questions. They talk about the biology of receptors and the…
