RNA Therapeutics

Overview


RNA Therapeutics 2015 returns to London on 16th and 17th February, gathering a room full of scientific pioneers and industry experts to identify the latest advancements, best practice and strategies to maximise return on investment.

The cutting edge event will ask questions such as:

What are the current opportunities, obstacles and solutions for developing effective RNAi based drugs? What makes CRISPR-Cas special and how can be used as a role model for personalised medicine? Why use a patent to protect a biotech innovation? How do we unlock the potential with locked nucleic acid? How does the next generation of ASOs demonstrate robust target knock down in multiple preclinical cancer models?

Hear case study driven presentations from an array of market leaders such as Roche, CRISPR Therapeutics, Leiden University Medical Centre, MiNa Therapeutics and AstraZeneca, discussing the latest advancements and programmes, CRIPSPR gene editing technologies, hepatic targeting, viral delivery, the patent application process, RNA splicing, plus much more!
