Dr. Tiffany D. Rau, technical/scientific lead for fermentation and isolation for Research and Development and Manufacturing activities at Eli Lilly in Puerto Rico will be offering a lecture titled “Fermentation: From Discovery to Commercialization”
Date: March 20, 2014
Time: 10:30 am – 12:00 pm
Place: Department of Physics – Eugene Francis Room
Abstract:
The path from discovery to commercialization of a biopharmaceutical/pharmaceutical product is often challenging and very long but very rewarding for all involved including our patients. This seminar will discuss the path a biopharmaceutical often takes from the discovery lab to the manufacturing facility and finally to the patient.
As we go on this journey different aspects will be highlighted such as…
- How does one use an organism such as E. coli to make a medication? – Fermentation Development
- You want us to make how much!!!??? Theory, challenges and rewards of scaling-up a fermentation process.
