5th Laupheim Biotech Days
Themes
With the topic "Bioprocess Intensification" the 5th Biotech Days will spotlight all aspects of the intensification of cell culture-based bioprocesses in the biopharmaceutical industry.
The conference will include both up- and downstream processing and will sport a scientific bandwidth ranging from molecular switches to loop-controlled hybrid processes and intelligent purification strategies.
This turns the 5th Biotech Days into an ideal stage for a rich diversity of strategies to modify process-specific key attributes, enabling a significant enhancement of productivity, product quality, reliability and consistency as well as product safety.
Topics are:
- Cells for the production of biologics
- Vectors for cells
- Omics-technology for cells and processes
- Minimal-invasive control methods
- Fast protein purification strategies
- Product stability

In the context of the 5th Biotech Days and the Young Scientists Cell Culture Biotechnology Retreat we would like to take photos again in order to publish them on online media (Internet, Intranet, Infoscreen, social media (Facebook, LinkedIn, Xing), in-house newspaper) later. Of course you do not have to be photographed. In this case, simply tell or let the photographer know that you do not want to be photographed. Otherwise, we assume your consent. But even in this case, if you have changed your mind, you can always object to the use of the photo(s) for the above-mentioned purposes - simply send an e-mail to communications@rentschler-biopharma.com and we will no longer use the photo in future.
