Single Cell Antibody Discovery Using 'Islands of Automation'

DATE: August 6th, 2020

TIME:  10:00am PT

In recent years Lilly has implemented a Next Generation Research (NGR) initiative to improve the value output of the R&D portfolio. One of the NGR pillars focuses on decreasing the timeline to bring medicines to patients. As part of this initiative Lilly has invested in ‘Islands of Automation’ to advance the B cell antibody discovery platform at the Lilly Biotechnology Center in San Diego with the goal of significantly increasing throughput and reducing project timelines. This talk will focus on the automated systems that have been developed as part of this platform. This highly automated approach to antibody discovery has enabled us to meet aggressive timelines and dramatically increase throughput while allowing flexibility for future changes to our process.

Learning Objectives:

1. Monoclonal antibody discovery from single B cells.

2. Modular automated systems that allow for maximum flexibility to support several workflows in addition to monoclonal antibody discovery.

3. Automated system design and optimization.

Webinars will be available for unlimited on-demand viewing after live event.
