SUMMARY:Hands-On Biomanufacturing of Vectors for Gene Therapy
DESCRIPTION:Obtain hands-on training in the production of vectors for gene therapy products using an AAV2-GFP model system in both HEK293 cells and Sf9/Baculovirus systems. Engage in pilot/manufacturing-scale upstream operations (adherent and suspension cell culture\, vector production scale-up in cell stacks and single-use bioreactors); downstream operations (cell lysis\, product recovery via depth filtration\, purification using chromatography\, and ultrafiltration for concentration and buffer exchange); and analytical technologies\, as well as discuss strategies and issues around scale-up\, tech transfer\, and adherent vs. suspension cultures.

SUMMARY:Design of Experiments for Biomanufacturing
DESCRIPTION:This workshop aims to introduce participants to the principles and applications of Design of Experiments (DoE) in the analysis of bioprocesses. Through a combination of lectures\, hands-on use of JMP statistical software (SAS Institute)\, and real bioprocess case studies\, attendees will learn how to apply DoE techniques in practice. The case studies\, centered on microbial fermentation using real experimental data\, explore how variables such as medium composition\, induction temperature and duration affect protein (product) yield.

SUMMARY:Cell Culture Engineering
DESCRIPTION:Learn key concepts and practical skills in bioprocess development and cell culture engineering in biomanufacturing. Lectures focus on cell culture media and feeding strategies\, operational modes (batch\, fed-batch\, perfusion)\, bioreactor design (single-use and stainless steel)\, high-density cell banking\, critical process controls\, harvest operations\, design of experiments (DOE) in process development\, glycan analysis by mass spectrometry\, and process analytical technology (PAT). Laboratory sessions provide hands-on experience in media preparation and filter integrity testing\, single-use and stainless-steel bioreactor operation\, rocker bag assembly inoculation and sampling\, and high-density cell banking from perfusion cultures.

SUMMARY:PAT for Real-time Culture Monitoring and Closed-Loop Process Control
DESCRIPTION:In this three-day\, hands-on course\, you will gain familiarity with and applied insight into the functionality of control equipment and instrumentation\, and how to integrate Process Analytical Technology (PAT) into a model yeast fermentation for more advanced in-line monitoring and process control. Participants will work with traditional sensors\, a PAT spectral sensor\, and multivariate data analysis (MVDA) software\, to model\, monitor\, and control a microbial process.
