Welcome to an afternoon where science meets practicality in therapeutic development. Our TechTalk is designed for professionals passionate about making a tangible clinical impact.
Join us as we dive into therapy innovation, from preclinical research to the challenges and successes of conducting patient trials. You'll hear from hands-on experts who understand the day-to-day reality of developing new treatments.
Our speakers include seasoned academics and industry professionals who will share their latest findings and experiences. They'll cover topics like the latest dual-therapy approaches, the advancements in high-throughput toxicity screening, and the practicalities of managing large-scale clinical trials through a series of talks and a panel discussion.
After the talks, it's a chance to meet your peers in a relaxed setting, discuss the day's topics, and maybe even kick-start your next collaboration over drinks and bites.
