Introduction:

Mammalian cell culture plays a crucial role in the production of biopharmaceuticals, including monoclonal antibodies, recombinant proteins, and cell and gene therapies. This advanced training program offers a comprehensive overview of best industry practices in mammalian cell culture and bioreactor operations, covering topics such as media development, cell line development, process monitoring and control, and advanced techniques. Through a combination of theoretical learning and practical application, participants will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to optimize productivity, efficiency, and product quality in mammalian cell culture processes.

Trainer Profile:

Hugo Federico Cueto Rojas, Associate Director / Team Lead Drug Substance Development, uniQure

Hugo has over 15 years of experience in both industry and academia in process development with particular focus on animal cell culture and precision fermentation. He has ample experience in Cell Line Development, scale up/down of upstream processes, high-throughput experimentation, automation and control of cell culture operations, media optimization, cell culture intensification, PAT, first-principles and empirical modeling to aid process development. He has worked with a wide variety of cell lines (e.g. HEK293-derived and Sf9-derived) and microorganisms such as cyanobacteria, hydrogenotrophs, S. aureus, E. coli, and S. cerevisiae.

Methodology

The training program will utilize a combination of lectures, case studies, workshops, and interactive discussions to facilitate active learning and engagement. Participants will have opportunities to apply theoretical knowledge to practical challenges through problem-solving exercises and collaborative activities. The course will be delivered by a sought-after upstream subject matter expert in mammalian cell culture and bioreactor operations.

Key Outcomes
