[WEBINAR] Accelerating ATMP Development: From Lab to GMP
Read MoreThis on-demand webinar from The Medicine Accelerator examines how ATMP developers can move from lab-scale development toward GMP manufacturing with stronger process understanding, quality control, and technology transfer planning. The session focuses on an oncolytic virus case study that achieved a 400% increase in viral yield and a 90% reduction in cost per dose. Topics include ATMP process development, upstream and downstream optimization, impurity profile improvement, manufacturability, GMP readiness, regulatory considerations, tech transfer, clinical manufacturing capacity, and faster time to patient.

[WEBINAR] Optimizing Diastereomeric Salt Crystallization for Enantiomer Separation
Read MoreThis on-demand webinar from APC explores how Crystallization-Induced Diastereomeric Transformation, or CIDT, can improve diastereomeric salt crystallization for chiral resolution. The session covers solubility behavior, phase relationships, counterion selection, solvent choice, solid-state control, and analytical strategies for improving enantiomer separation. It is relevant for pharmaceutical development teams working on chiral molecules, double salts, crystallization process design, yield improvement, purity optimization, scale-up, and enantiopure compound production.
