Upstream Bioprocess Technology (Part 1)
Upstream Bioprocess Technology (Part 1)
The biopharmaceutical market continues to expand at a rapid pace and the demand for upstream manufacturing capacity, particularly for growth areas such as viral vectors, is growing with it. In this microlearning course, you will gain a fundamental understanding of the biopharmaceutical manufacturing process such as the types of cells used in the bioprocess. A typical training program on upstream bioprocess can easily cost hundreds.

What is this 'Microlearning Course' about?
This course will provide participants with an understanding of the biopharmaceutical manufacturing process and the purpose of doing an upstream bioprocessing. In addition, it also covers the types of cells used in the bioprocess and the fundamental biology of prokaryotes and eukaryotes used in bioprocess.
Who is this course designed for?
Learners who are interested to know about biopharmaceutical manufacturing process starting from the upstream bioprocess technology.
Technologists working in the biopharmaceutical industry who handle cells may want to take this course to understand more about bioprocess.
What will you take away?
At the end of this course, you will be able to:
Outline a biopharmaceutical manufacturing process
Explain the purpose of upstream bioprocessing
Distinguish between prokaryotes and eukaryotes used in bioprocess.
Describe common cells used in bioprocess
