METABOLON @

2024 AAPS National Biotechnology Conference

  • San Francisco, USA
  • Booth 801
  • May 13 - May 16, 2024

Metabolon is excited to exhibit at the 2024 AAPS National Biotechnology Conference in San Francisco, California.

This conference will feature two tracks, one for the advances in discovery, formulation, and delivery of new modalities, and another for novel strategies advance biotherapeutic development. This conference aims to bring together premier speakers to discuss the pivotal advancements in drug development.

Metabolomics can be used to gain a deeper understanding of the disease mechanisms at a molecular level and identify metabolic changes associated with various disease states, which can provide insights into potential biomarkers and drug targets. Metabolomics can also be used to evaluate pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics properties of a drug which can elucidate treatment reseponse and off target effects. Join us at the AAPS National Biotechnology Conference to learn more about how metabolomics can be a powerful tool to aid in your drug development pipeline.
