Online Course: Principles of Biomanufacturing – Using Biotechnology to Manufacture Medicines

ABOUT

Over six weeks of content, MIT faculty and industry experts teach:

  • How small changes in a protein therapeutic may change its efficacy, safety, and manufacturability.
  • The method by which living cells are engineered to produce complex therapeutic proteins.
  • The way in which reactors are designed to support the growth of living cells that produce a target therapeutic.
  • How protein therapeutics are purified and how previous manufacturing steps inform how this is performed.
  • The keys to manufacture biopharmaceuticals in a regulated environment and analyze examples and case studies highlighting key biomanufacturing challenges.
