Efficient cell scale-up is essential in biologics and vaccine production to facilitate optimal product yields, whilst reducing footprint and manhours, Corning introduces the HYPER vessel technology. Corning HYPERFlasks and HYPERStacks are multilayer vessels incorporating proprietary gas-permeable film technology, resulting in high surface area to volume ratio. Using HYPER vessels, scientists can generate greater yields than traditional cell culture technologies, saving time, space and labor.
In this webinar we will provide a general introduction of the HYPER technology, as well as technical applications in the fields of cell and gene therapy and viral particle production.
About presenters:
Dr. Sonia Meconi
Sonia’s scientific background covers different fields such as biochemistry, cell biology, and immunology where she obtained a Ph.D., specifically in human infectious diseases working on a daily basis in a biologic level 3 lab. After a post-doctoral fellow and lecturer experience, she took over the head of the R&D and production teams in a small biotech which developed human serological diagnosis assays for infectious and autoimmune diseases. She oversaw pathogens (bacteria and virus) expansion supervision for protein microarray tests. Then, she joined an international company as an Application Specialist for cell culture and purification, creating new cell culture media dedicated to vaccines and cell therapy markets. Now, she joined Corning as Bioprocess Specialist working for different suppliers for the biopharmaceutical industry.
