ABOUT THE EVENT
The goal of this workshop is to convene key stakeholders to discuss both current and novel methodologies in preclinical and translational safety assessment of pregnancy risk associated with immunomodulatory therapy. Through the sharing of case examples, followed by a longer in-depth discussion within each session, the goal is to begin to address gaps in biology, current tools, and other aspects of pregnancy risk that need to be considered during drug development.
The workshop is intended to provide an interdisciplinary forum for industry, academia and regulatory scientists to discuss:
- The current state of reproductive immunology
- How adequate are the current set of tools/methodologies to address pregnancy risk under immunomodulatory therapies
- What additional tools/methods are currently being developed that could address gaps
- Global regulatory considerations across various immunomodulatory modalities
Requirements: To gain building access, you must bring acceptable and valid government issued identification (ID).
Registration: Up-to-date information and registration can be found here. Registration will close on February 5, 2020. Due to the format and structure of this workshop, attendance is restricted to in-person attendees only.

The Health and Environmental Sciences Institute (HESI) Protein Allergens, Toxins, and Bioinformatics (PATB) committee will be hosting a webinar to discuss emerging opportunities and innovations in the biotechnology and food safety assessment arenas. See details below!
Details
- Date: Wednesday, May 22, 2019
- Time: 11 AM - 12:30 PM EST
- Registration: Click here to register.
Speakers:
- Scott McClain, Regulatory Product Safety Scientist, Syngenta Crop Protection (USA), PATB Committee Co-Chair
- Lars Poulsen, Head of Research, Allergy Clinic, Copenhagen University Hospital at Gentofte (Denmark), Member of the COMPARE Database Peer-Review Expert Panel
Advances in agricultural and food biotechnology bring the opportunity to improve the way we grow food and feed crops. As part of the requirements to ensure food safety, it is vital to mitigate potential risks of introducing new allergens or unintended components in the food chain that could induce adverse reactions in humans.
The Health and Environmental Sciences Institute (HESI) Protein Allergens, Toxins, and Bioinformatics (PATB) committee engages international collaborative teams of academics, clinicians, regulators, and industry scientists who conduct research, design and populate public database resources, and convene trainings on the use and evaluation of biotechnology products. The PATB oversees the creation, maintenance, and distribution of the Comprehensive Protein Allergen Resource (COMPARE) Database whose use in conjunction bioinformatic tools, offers an effective means for assessing allergenic potential of novel food proteins.
Webinar attendees will:
- Learn directly from experts in the committee about the nuts and bolts of food safety assessment of biotechnology products, the committee contributions to the field and new emerging issues
- Engage in an interactive discussion about emerging opportunities, challenges, and innovations in the biotechnology and food safety assessment arenas
