IPI Surfacing
An IPI symposium on cell surface receptor biology and protein science
Thursday, June 15, 2023 ––– Joseph B. Martin Conference Center
at Harvard Medical School




The program
Symposium talks
Panel
The promise of synthetic antibodies and the challenges to universal access
A discussion on the biomedical applications of synthetic antibodies, barriers to competing with animal-derived antibodies and universal access to quality protein tools within the research community.
A gift from our founder
IPI Surfacing marked the celebration of a recent $210 million gift from IPI co-founder Tim Springer and the Springer family, which enables the Institute to make a lasting impact on biomedical research.
Hear what inspired Springer, a Harvard professor and veteran entrepreneur, to pursue bioscience, how he came to found IPI and why it’s essential to support basic protein science.
