New Development in Monoclonal Antibodies!

A recent development in monoclonal antibodies for Alzheimer's was announced in an article by FierceBiotech Research. Scientists at NYU Langone Medical Center's Center for Cognitive Neurology is conducting a study that suggests monoclonal antibodies designed to specifically target misfolding proteins in soluble, aggregated states, could be ideally used to treat neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, ALS, Parkinson's, and Huntington's.

Monoclonal antibodies are now used for treatments of a wide array of diseases, especially cancer, autoimmune, and inflammatory diseases and the studies are only expanding. With the market for monoclonal antibodies exploding to an estimated $31.7 billion by 2017, don’t miss out on the opportunity to discover the future of antibody engineering at the upcoming IBC’s Antibody Engineering & Therapeutics event.

This is the most trusted antibody engineering event in the industry where you will not only connect with over 700 antibody industry experts, but also learn about the latest antibody science and applications to expand your pipeline of antibody therapeutics.
