2nd Tissue Models & Phenotypic Screening Conference
Date: May 5-7, 2015
Venue:
Radisson Blu Hotel, Berlin
Karl-Liebknecht-Strasse 3
10178 Berlin, Germany
Overview:
We invite you to attend the 2nd Tissue Models & Phenotypic Screening Conference, which will take place on May 5-7, 2015 in Berlin, Germany.
Over the years, three-dimensional (3D) models have become more favored over two-dimensional models (2D) because they better mimic the in vivo environment. Though 3D models have the potential to reduce failure in early stage drug discovery, there are still many questions to be answered: What are the gaps that still exist between 3D and 2D models? How will we conduct research to fill those gaps and what technological developments are needed?
Sessions for the meeting include:
I.Engineering 3D Tissue Models
II.3D Models for Drug Safety Testing and Screening
III.Stem Cells & iPS Cell-Based 3D Tissue Models
IV.Advances in Functional Analysis for Phenotypic Screening
V.Phenotypic Screening for Target Deconvolution (joint session with parallel Drug Design & Medicinal Chemistry Conference)
VI.Case Studies in Phenotypic Screening
This meeting will bring together researchers from across multiple disciplines, from both industry and academia, to discuss how we can better engineer tissues for clinical delivery and develop models for drug screening. Colleagues will have the opportunity to network in an intimate and accessible environment in order to better form connections and exchange ideas.
