Profile

Larry Forman is a biologist by training. He worked at Genentech from 1980-1996 where his focus was mammalian cell culture process development. After Genentech, Larry worked for other pharmaceutical companies involved with the production of human therapeutic proteins via mammalian cell culture. In 2014 Larry founded CHO Plus to (successfully) develop cell-engineering methods for significantly increasing the specific productivity of mammalian cells used for biomanufacturing: engineered CHO cells for improved recombinant therapeutic protein production; engineered HEK-293 cells for improved AAV production.
