MiamiOH OARS on 03 Mar 16Cell-based therapies, especially immune cells, have the potential to revolutionize human healthcare in various different contexts, including cancer and personalized medicine. For example, CAR (Chimeric antigen receptor) T-cell therapy for cancer requires modification, in vitro culture and expansion of human T-cells. Manufacturing of therapeutic cells as the end product presents major engineering challenges. New therapies and cell-based products depend critically on the development of robust, reliable and reproducible biomanufacturing technologies.
