Intended Course Audience
- Engineers and physical scientists who wish to gain essential knowledge in cell biology and molecular genetics and learn the relevance of physical principles in bioprocess operations
- Life scientists who wish to learn facets of biology that relate to process engineering, as well as key engineering principles that can constrain and amplify biological potentials
- Those want to understand the "why" behind the "how" in cell culture bioprocessing
Special Features for Online Lectures
- All lectures are broadcast via Zoom to online attendees
- The live video is professionally administered for sustaining clarity and engagement
- A binder of printed notes will be delivered to each online attendee; this allows for on-screen lecture engagement and simultaneous note-taking, without having to switch screens
- Sessions will be recorded and available for viewing for a period of time
- International attendees in distant time zones can skip a few afternoon sessions and catch up in the morning before the next day’s program
- Multiple Q&A sessions will provide interactive discussion opportunities
Course Notes
- Lecture notes are updated every year to include new information. The course notes, a compilation of fundamental principles and recent advances, was the basis of the second edition of Professor Hu's Cell Culture Bioprocess Engineering book. The notes for the 2025 course will be updated from the book with additional topics.
- Each registrant will receive the notes in a course binder for easy reference and note-taking. Online attendees will receive the notes prior to the course.
