Join Dr Yinfei Yin to explore the benefits of optical imaging in preclinical oncology research with an emphasis on immunotherapy development. Learn how imaging improves the predictive power of preclinical studies, and allows a more efficient and cost-effective translation into the clinic. Key new imaging models for evaluating novel anticancer agents will also be discussed.

Learn how to select the right in vitro platform for each stage of your drug development program based on model features, benefits, and limitations. Explore the optimal applications of tumor organoids, a superior and predictive research system for oncology drug development, and how to best utilize them alongside conventional platforms.

Join Dr Davy Ouyang to discover the latest cutting edge syngeneic research driving immuno-oncology development. Learn more about deep kinetic profiling, and how immune cell depletion studies are used to explore mediation of immunotherapy response. Engineered and bioluminescent syngeneics will also be discussed, as well as novel I/O platforms for moving beyond standard syngeneic studies.

Explore whole-transcriptomic analysis of tumor and matched normal tissues from Chinese ccRCC patients, to investigate differences in expression profiles across Chinese and Caucasian populations. Discover how genomic analysis of clinical samples has the potential to guide patient stratification.

Explore the key features of commonly used preclinical IBD models, including model development and example treatment studies. Learn how to choose the most appropriate model for your drug development program, based on drug target and mechanism of action alongside model disease pathogenesis and clinical relevance.
