WESTBOROUGH, MA--(Marketwire - May 12, 2010) - The 10th Annual IBC Formulation Strategies for Protein Therapeutics conference continues its tradition of offering its mix of cutting edge science, industry best practices and problem solving case studies. The conference will take place on September 21-23, 2010 at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence, RI.
“The Formulation function has a critical role in the development of novel protein therapeutic products, and this meeting has become a ‘must attend’ annual conference for every major protein formulation group in the world,” said IBC Life Sciences’ Program Director, Kent Simmons.
Attendees of this meeting will learn about next generation approaches to formulation and learn how colleagues from around the world are employing technology and new knowledge of protein behavior to optimize and accelerate formulation development.
