This course provides a comprehensive understanding of biotech manufacturing processes - what makes biopharmaceutical processes different from small molecules. Course content explores the underlying principles of proteins and cells to provide the foundation for how and why processes manufacture therapeutic proteins. The course studies commonly used manufacturing process operations including cell culture and fermentation; harvest and recovery; viral removal and inactivation; purification processes such as tangential flow filtration, centrifugation, size exclusion, and adsorptive chromatography.

This advanced, hands-on training opportunity will implement the global body of knowledge of ISPE to advance the understanding of drug substance and drug product manufacturing, utilizing the commercial scale operational aspects of the Biomanufacturing Training and Education Center (BTEC - located on North Carolina State Centennial Campus in Raleigh, NC) through a series of immersive and hands-on exercises that address current, real world manufacturing challenges.

This course considers the entire range of pharmaceutical engineering activity and identifies key attributes of GEP within it, including how GEP relates to and interfaces with GxP. The scope of GEP covers the complete lifecycle of engineering projects and engineered systems from conceptual design to retirement. GEP provides a foundation required across the pharmaceutical industry that other areas, such as GxP build upon. This course, based on ISPE Good Practice Guide: Good Engineering Practice (Second Edition) also defines and clarifies GEP as an enabling process for Quality Risk Management…
