How it will work is we have 3 Round Tables each covering a different Emerging Innovation in Upstream Bioprocessing. Each will be led by an expert. The expert will kick off and guide the discussion which will last for 30 minutes. At the end of the 30 minutes the leader will report their main conclusions to the room for a maximum of 10 minutes.
Continuous and Intensified Processing
- Transitioning from traditional batch to continuous systems.
- Integration with downstream processes.
- Regulatory acceptance and validation hurdles.
- Development of hybrid systems for phased implementation.
- Advances in perfusion systems and single-use bioreactors.
- Widespread adoption in commercial manufacturing.
- Improved efficiency, reduced costs, and faster time to market.
Automation and AI in Cell Culture
- Resistance to adopting AI-driven systems.
- Lack of data standardization and integration.
- Implementation of user-friendly AI tools with robust training programs.
- Standardized data frameworks and digital transformation strategies.
- Collaboration between tech companies and biopharma.
- Fully automated bioprocessing plants.
- Predictive analytics and AI-driven decision-making becoming mainstream.
Cell Line Engineering Advances
- Genetic stability and regulatory concerns with novel cell lines.
- Slow timelines for new cell line development.
- Limited understanding of long-term impacts of gene editing.
- Use of CRISPR and synthetic biology for targeted, efficient modifications.
- High-throughput screening to accelerate selection.
- Emergence of designer cell lines for specific therapies.
