BPD Symposium: Novel Modalities in Biotechnology

Biomanufacturing and Process Development

The landscape of biopharma has dramatically changed in recent years, moving beyond protein-based products to include modalities such as antisense oligonucleotides, gene therapy and cell therapy products. In RTP, universities and biotech companies are working hard to make these new technologies work for patients who need them. On November 29th, please join the Biomanufacuting and Process Development (BPD) exchange group for an exciting afternoon of networking and a symposium where local leaders share successes and challenges in manufacturing these new modalities.
