Come and say hello to the 2B team at this event!

The British Society for Immunology Congress 2021 will take place from Sunday 28 November to Wednesday 1 December 2021 in Edinburgh, UK.

This is the UK's premier immunology event attracting over 1,400 attendees to enjoy our extensive 4-day programme of cutting-edge research from leading UK and international researchers. Our Congress Committee have put together an inspiring programme covering the breadth of immunology while shining a spotlight on hot topics.

Come and say hello to the 2B team at this event!

The British Society for Immunology has developed this series of webinars ‘Connecting on coronavirus: the expert hub’ to provide immunologists with a platform to keep informed with the latest developments on the Coronavirus outbreak by sharing relevant and timely information from expert sources. We’re in an unprecedented crisis in which constant global relief efforts result in around the clock activity. Now more than ever, we need to keep up to date and stay connected within the immunology community.

Available throughout the year!

There are 4 critical steps to any sequencing experiment: sample preparation, library design, sequencing, and data analysis. The choices made for accomplishing these steps are often driven by the sample and the biological question to be addressed.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- How to decide which sequencing technique to use
- How to design and run sequencing experiments
- What are some of the common challenges
- How to troubleshoot and overcome some of those challenges
- Case studies describing how sequencing can be done efficiently to save time and cost

Available throughout the year!

More than two-thirds of biotherapeutics are glycosylated proteins, which includes the therapeutically important category of monoclonal antibodies. The development and manufacturing of these potentially life-changing treatments, however, carries a high risk of failure and is technically challenging and expensive. Glycosylation is a critical product quality attribute that impacts on the efficacy and safety of glycosylated biotherapeutics and, therefore, must be characterized and monitored throughout product development and manufacturing processes.

Key Learning Objectives:
Review a simplified, rapid, high-throughput and cost-effective platform for characterization and monitoring of the glycosylation profile throughout development and manufacturing
Learn about a novel approach for safety and potency assurance in biopharmaceuticals
Use of Octet® platform for high-throughput detection of glycans in biopharmaceutical samples

We’re back with another webinar! Join our panel of experts, including Bartek Makower and Marcus Buggert, as they dig into why T cells are the (not-so-secret) stars of COVID-19 research – plus how ELISpot and FluoroSpot techniques are already facilitating a remarkable global research effort.

Available throughout the year!

With COVID-19 vaccine rollout now underway, there has never been a more important time for researchers to engage with the public around vaccination by listening and addressing common questions and concerns. BSI members and the wider research community are ideally placed to be expert sources of knowledge in these dialogues. Getting started in these conversations can seem daunting but this webinar will give you the tools you need to approach them in a constructive way and generate productive interactions.

Availabe throughout the year !

In this webinar, the head of Mabtech R&D, Dr Bartek Makower gives an overview of ELISpot and FluoroSpot in relation to Covid-19.
