Antibodies are indispensable tools for research, diagnosis, and therapy. Recombinant approaches allow the modification and improvement of nearly all antibody properties, such as affinity, valency, specificity, stability, serum half-life, effector functions, and immunogenicity.
"Antibody Engineering" provides a comprehensive toolbox covering the well-established basics but also many exciting new techniques. The protocols reflect the latest "hands on" knowledge of key laboratories in this still fast-moving field. Newcomers will benefit from the proven step-by-step protocols, which include helpful practical advice; experienced antibody engineers will appreciate the new ideas and approaches. The book is an invaluable resource for all those engaged in antibody research and development.

Roland Kontermann obtained his PhD in Molecular Biology from the University of Heidelberg. After working as a postdoc in the laboratory of Sir Gregory Winter at the MRC Centre for Protein Engineering, Cambridge, UK, he was a group leader at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Tumor Biology of the University of Marburg, and subsequently Head of Research at vectron therapeutics AG. Since 2004 he is Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the Institute of Cell Biology and Immunology of the University of Stuttgart. Current research focuses on the development of recombinant bispecific and bifunctional antibody molecules, including half-life extension strategies, and targeted nanoparticulate carrier systems for tumor therapy. He has over 60 scientific publications and co-editor (together with Stefan Dübel) of the Antibody Engineering Lab Manual.

Stefan Dübel received his PhD at the Center for Molecular Biology Heidelberg and spent his post-doc at the German Cancer Research Center with research on the development of antibody display libraries. In the following years, he substantially participated in the invention of recombinant antibody phage display technology, as well as other recombinant antibody technologies and the development of various antibody fusion proteins. In 1996, he moved to the University of Heidelberg to establish the antibody engineering group at the Institute of Molecular Genetics. After holding a group leader position at the University of Heidelberg from 1996, Stefan Dübel went to the Biological Faculty of the Technical University of Braunschweig as a full professor in 2002. Here, he currently serves as head of the Department of Biotechnology in Braunschweig and managing director of the Institute of Biochemistry and Biotechnology. He has co-authored more than 90 scientific papers, 17 patents, as well as two acknowledged textbooks in the field of recombinant antibodies. He is also board member of scientific journals and the biotech industry.
