Upstream Cell Culture Process Development for monoclonal antibody biosimilars: - Early stage process development studies (clone selection, media feeds screening, physical paramters optimization, bioreactor suitability and pilot scale consistency runs) for mAb biosimilar - Scale-up of mAb processes to 2kL Single Use Bioreactors (Constant kLa, P/V approach based upstream prcocess scale-up) - Technology Transfer (Process TTDs preparation) - Process productivity Improvement -Concentrated Fed-Batch Process

Upstream Cell Culture Process Development: Responsible for Late Stage -Upstream Cell Culture Process Development Studies for monoclonal antibody biosimilar development ( Risk assessment by FMEA, Scale Down Model Development and Process Chracterization Studies). Additionally - Upstream Gap Experiments, Pilot plant and Manufacturing Support, Troubleshoot issues related to cell culture, Utilization of statistical methods and design of experiments to drive process improvements and Support Regulatory Filing
