Yposkesi to give talk on gene therapy vectors at Virtual Cell & Gene Meeting on the Mediterranean, April 6 – 9, 2021

Corbeille-Essonnes (near Paris), France – March 24, 2021 – Yposkesi, a Contract Development and Manufacturing Organisation (CDMO) dedicated to the production of gene therapy drugs, today announces that Brian Mullan, Ph.D, head of development and innovation at Yposkesi will present at the annual Cell & Gene Meeting on the Mediterranean being held virtually April 6-9.

Challenges in increasing yields in gene therapy vector production have created a bottleneck for developers of gene therapies seeking to advance clinical trials and commercialize new therapeutic drugs. Novel manufacturing approaches are being developed to improve yields.

Dr. Mullan will share insights on developments in impurity management, automation for analytical testing, and plug and play approaches, among others.

The Cell & Gene Meeting on the Mediterranean is organized by the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine as a four-day virtual conference. It features more than 80 dedicated company presentations by leading public and private companies, highlighting technical and clinical achievements over the past 12 months in the areas of cell therapy, gene therapy, gene editing, tissue engineering and broader regenerative medicine technologies. The meeting also includes over 50 panelists and featured speakers taking part in 13 in-depth sessions covering all aspects of cell and gene therapy commercialization.
