Webinar: Design and Screening of Bispecific ADCs Discovered in RenLite Common Light Chain Antibody Mice

Our webinar “Design and Screening of Bispecific ADCs Discovered in RenLite Common Light Chain Antibody Mice” was live on March 16, 2022 at 11AM EDT.

In this webinar, we

  • Introduced Biocytogen’s next-generation fully human bispecific antibody development platform, which has facilitated drug discovery for more than two hundred TAA (tumor associated antigen) targets
  • Analyzed the design, screening and drug discovery of bispecific antibodies and bispecific-ADC drugs in two case studies

About the Speaker & Panelists

Speaker:

Yi (Benny) Yang, Ph.D.  Chief Scientific Officer, Biocytogen Beijing

Dr. Yang received his Ph.D. degree in immunology from the University of Connecticut and completed his postdoctoral training at New York University School of Medicine.
