Every last tuesday of the month at 7 PM

The bioRN Lounge is the monthly networking event for members of the bioRN cluster. We welcome representatives from biotech and life science companies in the bioRN Life Science Cluster, as well as scientists from our research institutes.

Urban Kitchen in Heidelberg

After a short update of bioRN cluster activities and news, an invited speaker from the network presents and discusses scientific trends, breakthrough techniques, outstanding research, and more with the participants.

Upcoming bioRN Lounge

Next-generation TCR-like antibodies with improved specificity profiles

24-02-2026 | Urban Kitchen Heidelberg

Next-generation TCR-like antibodies with improved specificity profiles

Safety assessment of TCR and TCR-like antibodies remains challenging and requires robust ex-vivo model systems. Yumab will present a novel CHO-display library that closely mimics the natural human peptide:HLA (pHLA) repertoire and enables the identification of highly specific antibody leads that surpass current standards. They will also demonstrate that these pHLA antibodies can be converted easily into bispecific T-cell engagers using our proprietary CD3-specific VHH antibodies, which induce potent T-cell activation and target cell killing.
