Despite decades of research and advances, some areas of protein science remain extremely challenging and complex. Antibodies, vaccines, human proteins, and other difficult-to-express proteins have fueled new research and expression methodologies and technologies. High throughput purification and tags promise great rewards, but still pose important questions for researchers. Cell free expression methods hold great potential, but pose new challenges. This meeting addresses the newest developments in these protein science fields and provides insights and solutions for conquering these issues.
