Research Overview 1
Bioprocess development
The translation of biologics from research laboratory to market requires scalable, cost-effective and reproducible processes. Our projects involve the development of upstream and downstream processes for commercially valuable recombinant proteins that can be utilised in the areas of diagnostics, drug-drug interaction studies or as vaccines.
