About the Virtual Roundtable
This virtual roundtable was a live online event that we expected to last between 30 and 60 minutes. It is now available on-demand. Randal Ketchem chaired the session, and panelists were invited to briefly describe key projects that they have worked on during which teams have designed therapeutic antibodies. Randal Ketchem then moderated a discussion in which the panel was able to discuss the importance of good antibody design for clinical success, lessons learned from projects and what constitutes best practice.
