Charles River’s sixth World Congress, “Drug Modalities Game Changers,” is part of our ongoing efforts to progress and raise awareness about how advanced modalities are disrupting drug development. This one-day global event took place in Cambridge, MA with sessions streamed live to the Cambridge, UK and San Francisco, CA satellite locations. This year's World Congress showcased how advanced modalities are shaping drug development through presentations from scientific distributors, panel discussions, and patient success stories. In case you missed it, the presentations are available for viewing below.
