Nucleic acid delivery for advanced therapies

Explore the latest breakthroughs in nucleic acid delivery with insights from experts at NIH, NeoVac, and Sartorius BIA Separations. This session focuses on scalable RNA manufacturing, advanced purification, and the rational design of LNPs for targeted delivery. 

Join this session for expert insights into: 

  • Achieving high RNA purity and yield with high-quality DNA templates and scalable purification workflows
  • Ensuring consistent, safe, and effective production of nucleic acid products through effective CMC processes
  • Applying innovative approaches to modulating gene expression for therapeutic applications 
  • Creating LNPs and amino ionizable lipids with tailored immunogenic properties for repeated dosing and targeted delivery

Timings:

  • Event Introduction, Roisin McGuigan (0.00-02:00)
  • Optimizing mRNA Manufacturing: High Purity and Yield, Enhancing mRNA Production with Advanced Purification, Rok Sekernik (~02:00-47:00) 
  • RNA Delivery and Gene Expression Modulation Innovations, Innovations in RNA Delivery and Gene Expression, Dan Peer (~47:00-01:33:00)
