Title: From Drug Discovery to Production QC – Mastering Bioassays with PLA 3.0 and Spark multimode reader
Moderator: Siegfried Sasshofer (Tecan Austria)
Speakers: Dr. Ralf Stegmann (CEO of Stegmann Systems), Dr. Christian Oberdanner (Tecan Austria)
Duration: Approximately 45 minutes
Language: English (with English subtitles)
Advancements in emerging fields such as cell and gene therapy have brought to light numerous challenges that conventional assays can no longer fully address. These include complex biological phenomena, data variability, ensuring reproducibility, and regulatory compliance.
In this webinar, we will discuss the challenges that researchers involved in bioassays face on a daily basis, as well as practical approaches to overcoming them.
First, we will introduce the current state of bioassays in GMP/GLP laboratories, highlighting the importance of experimental design, data management, and staff training through concrete examples. We will also share tips and know-how for reducing the “effort” and “errors” encountered in daily experiments—such as controlling temperature and gas environments, enabling long-term automated measurements, and centralized data management—to obtain more reliable data.
Furthermore, we will demonstrate how to build an integrated workflow that seamlessly connects each step from assay development to quality control, including the actual processes of data acquisition and analysis. This webinar will provide valuable insights for those aiming to conduct more efficient and reliable research in the field of bioassays.
