Cell and Gene Therapy is fast becoming an established field that aims to utilize the power of cell-based medicines to deliver new therapies for the 21st Century. However, translating the discovery science into manufacturable products has so far been challenging and so multi-disciplinary engineers who possess unique skills are urgently needed to address the manufacture of these complex medicinal products.
This course addresses the real-world challenges of translating discoveries to the clinic in a way that is commercially viable. A series of lectures and interactive case studies will enable you to:
- Understand the distinctions of manufacturing cells compared with biologics
- Understand the challenges faced in advancing cell and gene therapies to clinic and the lessons learned from established companies
- Understand the impact of design and engineering considerations on cell and gene therapy manufacture
- Identify and define critical process parameters for different cell and gene therapy applications
- Knowledge and application of analytical toolsets for quality measurement
- Understand key implications to facilitate and expedite translation from laboratory to a manufacturing and clinical setting
The cost of the course includes tuition, course materials, lunches, refreshments and a networking dinner. Accommodation is not included.
