Beyond The Gold Standard(s): Modernizing Oligonucleotide SynthesisA few weeks ago, I had the chance to sit down with OPT Congress speaker Phil Baran, Richard Lerner Chair Professor, Department of Chemistry, Scripps Research. Baran was slated to (and did) present a keynote on the innovations shaping the next generation of oligo synthesis. Here, I share the biggest takeaways I had from our conversation, touching on how he sees the science of oligo chemistry and manufacturing advancing in the near and far future.
MANUFACTURING VIDEOS
Learn about the development and advantages of a new affinity ligand platform. It provides versatile, single-step purification for recombinant proteins and virus particles, enhancing yield and purity.
In this Advancing RNA Live clip, CMC Consultant Sujit Jain explains the numerous ways that adding targeting ligands “stress tests” the standard LNP manufacturing platform, as well as outlines which capabilities are most important for companies to consider when selecting an outsourcing partner for their active delivery strategies.
In this Bioprocess Online Live panel, we discuss two experts' perspectives on the current state of the mRNA supply chain for critical raw materials and manufacturing supplies and where pain points still exist.
As both Advancing RNA Live speakers point out in this segment, the MHRA guidance focuses deeply on the critical role bioinformatics and AI/ML approaches will play in the development of personalized immunotherapies. Here, Eliquent Life Sciences’ Tiffany Lucas and CureVac’s Ulrike Jägle address the biggest challenges they anticipate companies will face in meeting the agencies’ recommendations.
