Training Courses

In this advanced course, trainees develop greater understanding of downstream processing techniques with a particular focus on emerging trends and disruptive technologies. Course content is tailored toward purification strategies for recombinant proteins and AAVs. Learning achieved by lectures, classroom activities and laboratory demonstrations.

In this advanced course, trainees develop greater understanding of upstream processing techniques with a particular focus on emerging trends and disruptive technologies. Course content is tailored toward mammalian cell lines, with a larger focus placed on suspension and intensified systems. Learning achieved by lectures, classroom activities and laboratory demonstrations.

A 5-day course providing integrated upstream & downstream bioprocessing training.

The course is aimed at early career professionals and anyone who wants to develop an understanding of upstream biomanufacturing techniques and processes.This 3-day course consists of six lectures, enhanced with practical demonstrations using bench-scale, pilot-scale, and single-use bioreactors. In particular, attendees will gain hands-on fermentation experience using a 30L-scale, stainless steel, stirred tank bioreactor.

Learn the technical, practical and analytical skills to operate protein chromatography systems and to optimise separation parameters. This course provides delegates with an introduction to the basic principles of protein chromatography and the practical experience of operating an AKTA system.

In medicines manufacturing, maintaining strict cleanroom behaviours is absolutely critical to ensure patient safety. Cleanroom and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) behaviours are essential for safeguarding product quality, ensuring efficacy, and meeting regulatory compliance standards. During this two-day, in-person course you will develop an understanding of GMP cleanrooms at different scales, environmental monitoring, contamination control strategies, and health and safety in GMP facilities.

In this advanced course, trainees are introduced to the underlying principles behind the use of flow cytometry in advanced therapies research/manufacture. Learning achieved by lectures, classroom activities and hands-on laboratory sessions.

GMP (good manufacturing practice) is the important element of Quality management to ensure medicines manufactured are of highest quality that meets the required regulatory standards. This 2-day in person course is for anyone with an interest in working in Quality in GMP Industry including QC, QA and manufacturing personnel, graduates or research scientists looking to establish their career in GMP/ ATMP industry.

This course, delivered in partnership with Cytiva, will examine process technologies and their operation for end-to-end ATMP production.

This course is aimed at anyone who wants to develop an understanding of theory and techniques in protein purification using fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) on an ÄKTA chromatography system.

Learn the safe set-up and operation of microbial bioreactors and the underlying techniques of aseptic lab work. This hands-on course is designed to provide delegates with a practical understanding and operation of lab-scale microbial bioreactors.

This 3-day course provides hands-on fermentation experience using a 300L-scale, stainless steel, stirred tank bioreactor.

In this introductory course, trainees develop the hands-on skills required to perform within a downstream bioprocessing development role. Course content is tailored toward purification strategies for recombinant proteins and AAVs. Learning achieved lectures, classroom activities and lab based practicals.

In this introductory course, trainees develop the hands-on skills required to perform within an upstream bioprocessing development role. Course content is tailored toward mammalian cell culture of CHO and HEK cells. Learning achieved lectures, classroom activities and lab based practicals.

Focusing on how to specify the process and the fundamentals for characterisation, this module will strengthen your knowledge of fermentation processes and through a series of lectures and case studies.
