Striking The Right Balance: The Critical Discussions Driving The mRNA Industry's Next ChapterNow, I cannot claim that I or any of the panelists at CASSS have or had access to a real crystal ball that will show us the future. However, what did come through these discussions loud and clear is that the future of our industry must include “balance.” Here, I’ll unpack a few ways the theme of “balance” presented itself — and no doubt will continue to present itself in the future — as well as how the panelists see us achieving this necessary balance.

From Misinformation To Medicine: Forging Bipartisan Support to Reverse Anti-mRNA PolicyIn this article, I’ll share some of the progress AMM has made and the barriers the organization/our industry is still facing in our efforts to reverse the policy decisions that have been made against mRNA today. Throughout the panel, the speakers also shared their thoughts on the types of messaging we should be considering and/or have started to see making an impact.

As Pfizer and Moderna publicly announce work on an mRNA-based universal flu vaccine, what else is on the horizon for mRNA? Tune in to this segment from the Bioprocess Online Live event mRNA Manufacturing: Bright Future, Big Challenges for a discussion with Roberta Duncan, VP of the mRNA program at Seqirus; Duke Human Vaccine Institute Associate Director of Upstream and Downstream Process Development Jason Dickens, Ph.D.; and Jin Zhou, Executive Director of Process Development for mRNA and Protein Biologics at Ultragenyx. In this clip, they share market forecasts for mRNA vaccines and therapeutics and their companies’ go-forward plans to meet those demands.
Achieve seamless purification scale-up from development to manufacturing using integrated chromatography and TFF systems. Optimize workflows, ensure batch consistency, and accelerate time to market.
This Advancing RNA Live clip dives into the biggest challenges in mRNA purification and the critical debate on where to focus investment. Here, our three mRNA PD experts argue for a holistic process development strategy, challenging the traditional wisdom of optimizing the upstream process at any cost.
In this Bioprocess Online Live panel discussion explore how two industry experts encourage their CMC and R&D teams to work more closely together to ensure a streamlined transition of a molecule from R&D to process development.
