Biologics rarely have a straight road from first hit to patient, and Festival of Biologics in Basel brings together everyone who works on every stretch of it, from discovery to manufacturing.
Selvita will be there on several fronts, and one of them is a talk we are especially looking forward to. On 14 October at 5:10 PM in Theatre 8, Andrzej Dubiel will present "Developability of Antibodies: Challenges and Future Directions".
Developability is where a promising molecule meets reality: stability, solubility, aggregation, and manufacturability. Andrzej will explain why early screening often fails to predict later behaviour and why long-term stability is so hard to predict. The talk will also look ahead, toward standardized high-throughput assays and AI-driven tools, with practical insights from a CRO perspective.
The rest of the Selvita team will be in Basel as well. Edyta Żyła will present a poster, "From Difficult to Deliverable: Strategic Approaches That Move Challenging Proteins Forward", showing how tailoring the approach to each protein, from conjugation to membrane protein purification and capsid assembly, delivers high-quality materials for biologics research. Elżbieta Plebanek and Irwin Matyjaszczyk, a scientist with hands-on antibody experience, are happy to talk about projects and challenges.
Whether your project is at the very beginning or already heading toward the clinic, come and find us in Basel, and stop by Andrzej’s talk at Theatre 8 on 14 October at 5:10 PM.
