Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s 17th Annual
Analytical Strategies for Novel Biologics
Innovating Analytics to Advance Biologic Breakthroughs
January 20-21, 2026
The Analytical Strategies for Novel Biologics conference will explore the latest advancements and emerging strategies in analytical method development and biophysical characterization. This dynamic program spans a wide spectrum of topics—from molecular interactions to implementation of cutting-edge analytical techniques and control strategies. Bringing together leading experts from academia and industry, the conference provides a platform for in-depth discussion on the characterization, development, and quality control of next-generation biologics. Special emphasis will be placed on innovative methods essential for ensuring the safety, efficacy, and consistency of complex therapeutic modalities, along with strategies for automating analytical workflows to enhance efficiency and reproducibility.
Coverage will include, but is not limited to:
- Analytical method development and validation
- Fit-for-purpose assay design for emerging modalities
- ICH-compliant validation for comparability, release, and stability testing
- Advanced structural and biophysical characterization
- Tertiary structure analysis
- Post-translational modifications
- Conjugation-site analysis
- Molecular interactions/binding and functional assays
- SPR, BLI, ITC for kinetic and affinity analysis of novel binders and target specificity
- Cell-based potency assays
- Use of AI/ML in analytical strategies and workflows
- ML-enhanced spectral analysis (FTIR, Raman)
- Structure-function mapping using deep-learning models
- Automation of analytical workflows
The deadline for priority consideration is July 18, 2025.
All proposals are subject to review by session chairpersons and/or the Scientific Advisory Committee to ensure the overall quality of the conference program. Additionally, as per Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s policy, a select number of vendors and consultants who provide products and services will be offered opportunities for podium presentation slots based on a variety of Corporate Sponsorships.
