Human B-Lymphocytes as a Source of High-Affinity, Really Fully Human Antibodies Producing antibody medicines through the hybridoma method in which transgenic mice are grafted with human antibody genes results in lowaffinity antibodies that are not fully human. In contrast, human blood B-lymphocytes are activated through natural immune reactions. They are stimulated repeatedly with a small amount of antigen, so only those producing high-affinity antibodies are activated. Thus, human lymphocytes are an excellent source of high-affinity, really fully human antibodies. This session covers Evec’s antibody production technology using Epstein-Barr virus and its experience in license negotiations.
Hype and Hope: A View from a Venture Capitalist Josh Wolfe provides a venture capital investor perspective on commercializing scientific breakthroughs, raising capital, recruiting talent, and building a high-growth high-tech venture. He dispels myths and shares insider views on the highstakes, risky, and competitive world of venture investing. How can you secure non-dilutive funding? What are the key terms to seek or be wary of when negotiating a deal? What are the new and emerging trends VCs are pursuing, and where are they shunning opportunities?
Electrostatic Nanolayer Delivery Platforms: From Macro- to Nanopharmacies The electrostatic layer-by-layer process is a simple and elegant method of constructing highly tailored ultrathin polymer and organic–inorganic composite thin films to deliver proteins and biologic drugs in a highly tunable way. This approach can be adapted to achieve various goals, including releasing drugs in specific regions, increasing the half-life of the particle in the bloodstream, and preventing recognition of the particle as a foreign body. It is also possible to synthesize extremely long strands of RNA for cellular delivery, yielding active siRNA strands at significant doses.

Chaired by Joshua Reineke, Wayne State University, U.S.A., and Pirthi Pal Singh, Panacea Biotec Ltd., India
Speaker: Claus-Michael Lehr, Helmholtz Institute for Pharmaceutical Research Saarland (HIPS), Germany
Beyond development of delivery systems, formulation scientists must integrate scientific development along with regulatory requirements. Regulatory agencies monitor the path selected for initial screening, prototype development, process and composition optimization, and stability of drug product in addition to the final developed product. Quality by Design (QbD) ensures the systematic approach to development that begins with predefined objectives and emphasizes process understanding and process control, based on sound science and quality risk management.
This session is a must-attend for young scientists and will educate them on how nanoscale drug formulations have an edge over conventional formulations for improved drug delivery across epithelial barriers. Discussion involving experimental evidence will prove the advantage of drug/antigen loaded nanoparticles for targeted therapy of inflammatory bowel diseases, as needle-free vaccines via the dermal route to avoid the need for painful injections, and for delivery across the air-blood barrier while controlling mucociliary and macrophage clearance.

The Islands Are Calling: Exotic, Tropical Hawaii The beautiful city of Honolulu lies on the island of Oahu, part of the chain of islands that make up Hawaii. Honolulu offers the pristine beaches and waters of Waikiki, historic landmarks, world-class shopping, a flourishing cultural scene, and a variety of dining options. Climb Diamond Head, visit Pearl Harbor, snorkel at Hanauma Bay, or simply swim in the warm waters of the Pacific while enjoying your time in paradise.
Getting to Hawaii Honolulu International Airport (HNL) on Oahu is Hawaii’s major airport, serving as the entry point for most of Hawaii’s visitors. All 23 major U.S.A. carriers and 16 international carriers serve Oahu, so you can get there from just about anywhere. Honolulu International Airport is conveniently located 9 miles (14.4 km) west of Waikiki Beach, 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Central Honolulu, and 7.5 miles (12 km) west of the Hawaii Convention Center.
International Travel The U.S. Department of State encourages you to apply for your visa as soon as possible. The U.S. government is working to expedite visa processing; however, visas can take up to three months to obtain, so we encourage you to plan ahead to avoid any delays. The process of applying for your visa may have changed from the last time you applied or may take longer. If you have any difficulty obtaining a visa for the meeting, visit www.controlledreleasesociety.org/meetings/annual/travel/ for more details.
