TOPIC 360: A SIMPLE END-TO-END SYSTEM FOR SERIAL CELL SORTING AND MANIPULATION USING A SINGLE CONTAINER
SBC: DIAGNOLOGIX, LLC Topic: NCIChemotherapy may control but rarely cure metastatic cancers. Remarkably, modern immunotherapies, including cell-based therapies, have cured metastatic melanomas and other types of cancers. A major challenge for all cell therapies in general is the need to develop cost-effective and efficient manufacturing and delivery capabilities. We have recently established an innovative cell isolation technolo ...
