PepTalk 2015 - One of the Largest Gatherings of Protein Science Researchers in the US

NEEDHAM, Mass. - Oct. 8, 2014 - PRLog -- PepTalk: The Protein Science Week, One of the Largest Gatherings of Protein Science Researchers in the US, Provides Insight and Perspective on the Evolution of Biologics
Over 1,200 biotherapeutics industry experts will convene at this annual event to share insight and perspective on the evolution of biologics, and the generation, characterization, and clinical application of proteins.

In its fourteenth year, Cambridge Healthtech Institute's (CHI) "PepTalk: The Protein Science Week" is one of the largest gatherings of protein science researchers in the United States. PepTalk offers an array of education, innovation and networking programs attracting an international audience of more than 1,200 participants from 30 countries. Over 300 industry experts will share case studies, unpublished data, breakthroughs and solutions that support and enhance current research.
