Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s 2nd Annual
Accelerating Analytical Development
New Technologies to Optimise the Speed and Efficiency of Biotherapeutic Development
10-11 March 2026
Analytical development is moving faster than ever, driven by tighter timelines, platform expectations, and the need for seamless tech transfer. Accelerating Analytical Development will showcase how teams are advancing assay automation, multiplexing, and digital integration to keep pace. Talks will cover the deployment of interactive dashboards, AI-ready data architectures, and software tools that support real-time analysis and specification justification. Speakers will address key topics including in-process analytics, analytical strategies for complex modalities, and analytical support for continuous manufacturing and real-time release. The program also features insights into optimising sample prep, reference standards, and method transfer—whether across phases, sites, or CDMO partnerships. This track focuses on strategies that make analytical development faster, smarter, and ready for the demands of modern bioproduction.
Coverage will include, but is not limited to:
- Advanced software tools to support analysis of large datasets and data visualisation
- Analytical CMC strategies for accelerated and adaptive development programs
- Analytical support for real-time release testing and continuous manufacturing
- Automation and multiplexing for standard assays and in-process analytics
- Company-wide digitisation initiatives; data lakes, FAIR principles, integrated analysis
- Designing high-quality training datasets for AI-driven analytical models
- Developability stage fit for platform analyses
- Innovations in reference standards and control strategies for complex modalities
- Interactive dashboards, ELNs, and emerging AI/LLM tools to support analytical workflows
- Justification of specifications (bioassays, biophysical, compendial, biochemical, cell-based)
- Optimising transfers: inter-phase, sites, development to QC/GMP, to/from CDMO
- Resolving sample prep bottlenecks
The deadline for priority consideration is Friday 19 September
All proposals are subject to review by session chairpersons and/or the Scientific Advisory Committee to ensure the overall quality of the conference program. Additionally, as per Cambridge Healthtech Institute policy, a select number of vendors and consultants who provide products and services will be offered opportunities for podium presentation slots based on a variety of Corporate Sponsorships.
