Oxford Global Conferences are proud to present the Drug Discovery USA Congress, taking place on 21 – 22 October at the Hyatt Boston Harbor Hotel, Boston, USA. We are delighted to announce new hot topics for this congress.

This event will look at the emerging methodologies in a series of core areas, including open innovation, external research, high content analysis and knowledge-based design. Expert speakers will also tackle the big debates currently affecting research pipelines – Should we prioritise phenotypic over target-based screening? How will we utilise discovery data later in the pipeline? What can Big Pharma learn from successful biotechs?

The latest hot topics for Oxford Global’s Drug Discovery USA Congress include:

Are low affinity or poor TCR yields slowing you down?

Explore how CHO expression of soluble TCRs and TCR affinity maturation workflows via phage, serving as essential building blocks for early-stage TCR-TCE candidate generation.

22 October 2025 | 16:00 PM BST | FREE Webinar

Join Jiansheng Wu, Ph.D. to explore two integrated strategies:

  • High-titer CHO-based expression of sTCRs (~100 mg/L), enabling scalable and high-throughput production
  • Optimized phage display affinity maturation, improving TCR binding by up to ~10,000-fold

Whether you’re starting a new TCR program or optimizing an existing platform, this session will offer actionable strategies to accelerate discovery and improve candidate quality.
