Data quality and reproducibility are two of the main concerns across academic and industrial research. In this webinar, we will cover some applications of dynamic light scattering (DLS) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) for the analysis of sample quality in the context of drug discovery projects focused on small molecule drugs or antibodies. Based on case studies, scientists from the Drug Discovery and Development platform at Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab), Stockholm will show how early assessment of sample quality by orthogonal techniques can benefit the development of robust binding assays and inform the selection of mAb candidates with favorable properties.
