Course Overview

This 3-day online course will detail the fundamental biological components for gene therapy and gene-modified cell therapies and outline important consideration for selecting the most appropriate vectors and specific safety aspects.

  • Critical biological information to enable understanding of the cell and gene therapy tools and therapies both existing today and coming in the near future.

  • The course will also address key points in manufacturing, purification and different technologies for each of the types of therapies addressed during the course.

  • The lack of standardization regarding modular single-use consumables will be discussed as well as methods for cell separation and scaling-up issues.

  • Participants will also be given a set of case studies to analyse from the perspective of the course and provide feedback to the course leader who will select a few for general forum viewing after anonymizing the person providing the analysis.
