Read moreOxford Biomedica to host a free webinar showcasing its AAV expertise
Oxford, UK – 27 August 2024: On Wednesday 11 September 2024, Oxford Biomedica, a quality and innovation-led cell and gene therapy CDMO, will host a free 60-minute webinar on its adeno-associated virus (AAV) development expertise and showcase their recent breakthroughs. The webinar titled “Advanced AAV Processing and Potency through Characterisation of Capsid and Payload Heterogeneity” will feature presentations by: Sarah Laughlin-Toth, PhD, Senior Scientist, Analytical Development at Oxford Biomedica Thomas Thiers, Downstream Scientist, Purification Sciences at Oxford Biomedica Alex Meola, Associate Director, AAV Downstream Process Development at Oxford Biomedica The speakers will discuss how advanced characterisation of AAV capsids, including their contents and surface properties, provides crucial insights into factors affecting product quality and potency. They will explore the impacts of capsid modifications such as VP1 deamidation, production conditions including bioreactor time and AAV localisation, and capsid heterogeneity on AAV products. This knowledge is vital for enhancing the development and manufacturing of AAV-based therapies, with potential implications for improving product efficacy and patient safety. The webinar will be held at 16:00 BST / 11:00 EDT / 17:00 CET on Wednesday 11 September 2024, followed by a live Q&A session. To register for the webinar, please click here.
