The working group Cell & Fermentation Technology (CFT) is a newly formed fusion between the former working groups on Bioreactors and Animal & Plant Cell Culture. It was officially formed and named during the first official working group meeting on March 5th. The focus on this working group is on upstream bioprocessing of bacteria, yeasts and mammalian cells for the production of high value (pharmaceutical) products. The group aims to organize a meeting twice a year with speakers from academia and industry that are active in this field. Topics include bioreactor design, up- and downscaling, cell line and strain development, bioprocess monitoring and control (PAT/QbD), disposable reactor systems and the use of “omics” tools in bioprocess design.
As a working group we will continue to be active within NBV by organizing 2 meetings per year. The CFT working party also will organize and host a session at the NBC and during the Werkgroependag. Our next meeting will be in November of 2014, for which you will of course receive notification in due time. We are looking forward to interesting and interactive sessions and meetings within our working group and hope to meet you at these events!
