From millions to billions to trillions - translating your cell discovery into a cell product

A key aspect of translating great scientific discoveries to commercially viable cell therapies is the establishment of robust manufacturing processes that can produce the right quantity of cells, of the right quality, at the right cost, at the right time. In many instances a significant challenge lies in moving from the generation of millions of cells in the research lab to trillions of cells in compliance with regulatory requirements and Good Manufacturing Practices. There is no single path to achieving this, but establishing your vision early and asking the right questions can build a solid foundation from which to pursue future success. This presentation will explore some of these early considerations and why they are important.
