OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Antibodies play a key role in the immune system and our response to vaccines, and have shown great promise as biotherapeutics. The development of new biotherapeutics typically takes many years and requires over $1bn in investment. Computational methods and in particular, machine learning, have shown great promise for increasing the speed and reducing the cost of biotherapeutic development.
In this talk I will describe some of the novel computational tools and databases we are pioneering in biotherapeutics from accurate rapid structure prediction to the prediction of their affinity and binding, looking at both their promise and limitations.
