| BEC102 Biomolecular Probes as Diagnostic and Therapeutic Reagents | |||||
| Overview | This session will include the design, development, enhancement, and use of engineered biomolecules including nucleic acid and peptide aptamers, proteins, and small molecules for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Topics appropriate for this session include (but are not limited to) design and engineering of affinity, target/non-target specificity, serum stability/half-life, immunogenicity, multi-functionality, combination reagents, reagent arrays for in vitro diagnostic use (e.g. protein/enzyme/antibody profiling), and in vivo imaging reagents. | ||||
