The 3rd Antibody Validation meeting: Bath UK 20-21 (st) September 2018.

The International Antibody Validation meetings offer a welcome British forum for discussing this important topic, which is existentially crucial for the biological sciences community. Now in its 6th year, the biennial meeting is organized by Andrew Chalmers (University of Bath; CiteAb), this year with Carly Dix (Astra Zeneca).  The organizers gathered some 100 members of industry and academia, producers and users, for a day and a half to describe their efforts to ensure that their antibodies have the desired specificity and selectively for well-defined molecular targets. The meeting is largely available as WebCasts ( http://www.antibodyvalidation.co.uk/past-events/2018).
