Dr. Messer hosts webinar for “The Scientist”

April 18, 2018 By Tom Kiehl Leave a Comment

Dr. Anne Messer was one of two experts chosen to present a webinar for The Scientist (March 8, 2018.) Antibodies are the fastest growing class of synthetic therapeutics, and Dr. Messer’s presentation covered their development and use as therapeutics and markers for neurodegenerative diseases. She described cutting-edge design and optimization approaches, as well as offering insight on future directions in antibody engineering. Human stem cell lines and assays at NSCI allow screening and testing for which of these engineered antibodies and their variants should be carried forward as clinical drug candidates. The session had 581 registrants and 148 live viewers who also asked questions at the end of the presentations.

Our Unique Organization

The Neural Stem Cell Institute (NSCI) is dedicated to developing regenerative stem cell therapies for various diseases of the central nervous system (CNS): the brain, spinal cord and retina, regardless of the cause of injury. Led by MacArthur “Genius” Award winner Dr. Sally Temple who helped discover and define nervous system stem cells, NSCI is the first independent, non-profit stem cell research institute in the USA.
