In early discovery\, robust UV×MS purity assessment and impurity profiling are essential for both crude oligonucleotide libraries prior to early screening and purified batches prior to advanced assays. \nHere\, we present a streamlined LC–UV–MS platform comprising two methods paired with (semi-)automated data processing to increase analytical throughput and accelerate decision-making. First\, a flexible characterization method provides chromatographic separation and UV×MS purity/impurity analysis for purified ASOs\, siRNA and conjugates\, with semi-automated processing and automated reporting enabled by the Byos Oligo App. Second\, a high-throughput method delivers online desalting\, rapid MS fingerprinting\, purity analysis and impurity-class profiling for crude ASO and siRNA single‑strand libraries at scale (hundreds per day). \nTogether\, these methods provide a fast\, scalable and fit‑for‑purpose framework for oligonucleotide characterization in early drug discovery. \nKey takeaways:\n\nFit‑for‑purpose LC–UV–MS workflows We developed two analytical methods\, one for detailed characterization of purified batches and one for high‑throughput screening of crude libraries\, covering early discovery needs.\n(Semi-)automated data analysis We integrated data analysis tools\, such as the Byos Oligo workflow\, to enable semi‑automated UV×MS purity determination and impurity assignment with automated reporting\, reducing manual effort and variability.\nStandardized reporting We implemented standardized outputs to deliver consistent purity/impurity metrics for oligonucleotides\, improving comparability across libraries and individual samples.\n\nREGISTER» \nHosted by: URL:https://www.califesciences.org/event/rapid-and-flexible-analytical-characterization-of-oligonucleotides-2026/ CATEGORIES:Industry Events,Industry Supported ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.califesciences.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Virtual-Industry-Event-1.png LOCATION:https://www.califesciences.org/event/rapid-and-flexible-analytical-characterization-of-oligonucleotides-2026/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260429 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260501 DTSTAMP:20260614T013947 CREATED:20260213T182236Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260213T182236Z UID:10001009-1777420800-1777593599@www.califesciences.org SUMMARY:Pharma Partnering US Summit 2026 DESCRIPTION:The Pharma Partnering Summit is an exclusive Life Sciences Industry event\, with the aim to help companies expand their network and put together licensing deals\, research collaborations and financing.

Knowing the objectives\, expectations\, and processes of assembling and filing an IND is the key to not only a successful filing but also a promising clinical development path forward. Often\, there are cases where too many nice-to-have studies crowd in the package but critical studies/issues are not addressed\, and this can lead to significant delays in clinical development.

Among other challenges\, executives at small and medium companies have reported communication issues\, misaligned expectations and media leaks while attempting to get their products across the regulatory finish line. \nNotably\, many of these investigational therapies have targeted rare diseases affecting primarily children—products that FDA Commissioner Marty Makary and Center for Biologics and Research Director Vinay Prasad have vowed to expedite to the market. \nAt the same time\, the FDA has outlined its commitment to aligning with drug sponsors on the regulatory approval process\, with Makary and Prasad stating in a JAMA article published in June that they intend to provide “the regulatory navigation that [small] companies may lack internally.” \nIt’s clear that both the FDA and biopharma companies developing medicines for rare diseases want the same thing but there remains a disconnect. This panel discussion will look at how to leverage FDA frameworks\, define expectations and adopt modern technologies\, including AI and in silico models\, to increase the likelihood of success. \nREGISTER» \nHosted by: URL:https://www.califesciences.org/event/aligning-with-the-fda-on-a-regulatory-pathway/ CATEGORIES:Industry Events,Industry Supported,Professional Development ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.califesciences.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Virtual-Industry-Event-1.png LOCATION:https://www.califesciences.org/event/aligning-with-the-fda-on-a-regulatory-pathway/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260319T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260319T120000 DTSTAMP:20260614T013947 CREATED:20260302T213350Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260302T214421Z UID:10001029-1773918000-1773921600@www.califesciences.org SUMMARY:Lab Solutions & Products | BIO Savings Week DESCRIPTION:Designed for lab managers and R&D leaders\, this session explores the lab solutions and benefits that support research environments—from equipment and lab supply procurement to safety and compliance. \nFeatured Partners:\n\nAirgas Healthcare | Dalton Speelman\, National Account Manager\, Airgas Life Sciences\nAmerican Laboratory Trading | Carrie Kleinle\, Director\, Product Marketing & Partner Engagement\nClean Harbors | Lori Cotsack\, Corporate Account Manager\nSU Group | Ric Kunnert\, Regional Sales Manager\nUniFirst | Jim Tilton\, National Sales Manager\nVWR\, part of Avantor | Tina Nuthulaganti\, Director\, Strategic Alliances\n\n\n\n\nBIO Savings Week connects life science companies with the lab and business solutions available through their BIO or state life science association membership.
