High-throughput screening automation and BLI technology implementation at Sanofi for engineering next-generation multi-specific antibody therapeutics
Wednesday, September 17, at 16:00 BST | 17:00 CEST | 11:00 EDT | 8:00 PDT
Join Anja Wille as she explores how Sanofi has transformed antibody therapeutic development through advanced automation and screening technologies. Discover an end-to-end automated platform to engineer next-generation multi-specific antibody therapeutics at unprecedented scale.
She will cover the shift from traditional workflows to high-throughput platforms handling 10,000+ variants, and how the integration of multiple robotic platforms streamlines DNA handling, protein expression, and analysis.
The webinar will highlight how this integrated approach has successfully executed over 30 campaigns, significantly increasing the probability of success while generating valuable data for machine learning and AI applications.
Plus, you will learn about the use of biolayer interferometry (BLI) technology for rapid quantitation and off-rate screening and see real-world success stories, including Fab affinity maturation campaigns.
Key learning objectives:
- Understand how an integrated automated platform transforms traditional antibody development into a high-throughput process capable of handling 10,000+ variants simultaneously
- Learn about the implementation and benefits of BLI technology for rapid quantitation and off-rate screening, including practical insights from real campaign data
- Discover how automation across the entire value chain (from DNA handling to protein analysis) increases the probability of success and generates valuable data for AI applications
