11.02.26 -- Non-Clinical Supply Needs More Outsourcing Strength

SPONSOR

Webinar: Decoding Biologics Tech Transfer: Guiding Process Performance Across Sites, Scales, And Bioreactor Systems

Tech transfer isn’t just moving a process from one place to another. It’s about ensuring process understanding and control can withstand changes in scale, equipment, sites, and teams. Discover how bioreactor characterization, scale-down models, in-silico modeling, and cross-site collaboration can uncover uncertainty before it becomes manufacturing risk and help protect product quality and timelines. Learn more.

FEATURED EDITORIAL

Non-Clinical Supply Needs More Outsourcing Strength

A supply-chain reformer, book author, strategic advisor to drug sponsors of all sizes, investors, and policymakers, says “the non-clinical supply chain as the foundation of reliable commercial supply receives too little attention from prospective clinical trial sponsors. We could be doing a heck of a lot better." A discussion with Hedley Rees and our Chief Editor, Louis Garguilo.
