SUMMARY:Solving Particulates and Material Variability in CGT Manufacturing
DESCRIPTION:Particulates and raw material variability remain two of the toughest\, most talked about hurdles in cell and gene therapy.  \nIn the upcoming Cell & Gene Live\, Anthony Blaszczyk\, Ph.D.\, Senior Scientist at the U.S. Pharmacopeia\, and Basak Clements\, Ph.D.\, Founder and Senior Advisor at biomatria\, join Cell & Gene Chief Editor Erin Harris to examine industry efforts to establish meaningful standards for particulate control (both visible and subvisible) across CGT products. \nThe discussion will address the limitations of current testing methods and the need for a holistic\, risk-based approach that manages particulates from raw materials through final product. We will also explore how variability drives batch failures and CMC delays\, and how emerging digital QC systems and earlier supplier partnerships are helping organizations reduce these risks.

In this new landscape\, the ability to define and control CPPs is the only way to ensure a biosimilar remains highly similar to its reference. \nJoin Bioprocess Online’s Jon O’Connell for a virtual Q&A with experts exploring how QbD principles and an understanding of reference product CQAs should guide biosimilar process development to smooth the path to regulatory approval.  \nThis Bioprocess Online Live event will feature industry veterans\, biosimilars experts and principal consultants who will offer guidance and insight you won’t want to miss.

SUMMARY:Avoiding Scale-Up Surprises: Applying AI and Rapid Prototyping to Media and Process Development
DESCRIPTION:As biologics grow more complex and development timelines continue to tighten\, many teams could encounter manufacturability challenges related to decisions around media\, process\, and scalability made earlier in development. Traditional\, sequential workflows may not always surface potential challenges until programs are already moving toward scale-up\, which can limit flexibility. \nIn this webinar\, Thermo Fisher Scientific experts discuss factors that contribute to manufacturability challenges during the transition from development to manufacturing. The session walks through a representative development journey\, including early insights from AI\, data modeling\, and analytical testing\, followed by media and process development\, qualification through rapid prototyping\, and considerations for large-scale cGMP manufacturing. \nDuring this session\, attendees will hear perspectives on how teams may:\n~ Consider manufacturability earlier in biologics development\n~ Inform development decisions with AI and data modeling\n~ Apply rapid prototyping to evaluate media and process choices\n~ Support development decisions prior to cGMP scale-up

SUMMARY:Why Open-Source Models Matter for Computational Drug Discovery
DESCRIPTION:AI is reshaping every industry—and drug discovery is no exception. Across targets\, molecules\, and data at massive scale\, AI is becoming integral to how modern therapeutics are discovered and developed. \nThis panel explores how foundational open‑source AI engines like OpenFold and Boltz are being used across the drug discovery workflow\, from target discovery and validation to hit identification and lead optimization. Panelists will discuss the growing role of structural modeling\, chemoinformatics\, and predictive machine learning\, including how open models can enable faster structure–activity insights\, earlier toxicity prediction\, and more efficient decision‑making. The conversation will also touch on antibiotic discovery\, where AI is helping researchers break through long‑standing scientific and economic barriers by identifying new mechanisms\, molecular scaffolds\, and design strategies. \nThis session is designed for scientists and leaders seeking to understand where open-source AI is delivering real impact today—and why AI is no longer optional for staying competitive in drug discovery.

SUMMARY:Digital Design Meets Proven Performance: The Future of Single-Use Assemblies
DESCRIPTION:In today’s fast-paced biopharma and CDMO environments\, single-use assembly design is about confidence in quality\, supply continuity\, and process performance. This webinar explores how Thermo Scientific™ Single-Use Assemblies are designed to help reduce risk\, support flexible manufacturing\, and help organizations meet production milestones and maintain momentum when time to market is crucial. \nAttendees will see how automation-driven tools – including the Kaon™ app and the online Single-Use Assembly Configurator\, simplify and standardize assembly design. By bringing a broad\, trusted portfolio of components into one intuitive digital experience\, these tools accelerate design decisions\, improve consistency\, and reduce the effort required to move from concept to execution. \nWe will highlight three core considerations that set Thermo Scientific Single-Use Assemblies apart and deliver tangible value in real-world bioprocessing operations: \n    ~ Film technology for durable\, consistent performance across 2D and 3D bioprocess containers\n    ~ Integration of LifeASSURE™ sterilizing grade filters that streamline qualification\n    ~ Protection of process integrity at critical connection points to reduce risks of leaks \nJoin this webinar to learn how a standardized\, automated configuration experience\, backed by proven Thermo Scientific technologies to help biopharma and CDMO teams move faster\, reduce risk\, and execute with confidence.

SUMMARY:The Phase 2 Endpoint Dilemma: Bridging Subjective Scales and Objective Measures in Neurodegenerative Trials
DESCRIPTION:Phase 2 neurodegenerative trials are increasingly challenged by slow disease trajectories\, heterogeneous patient populations\, and blunt legacy endpoints that struggle to detect treatment-related change over typical study durations. Traditional scales such as ADAS-Cog and MDS-UPDRS\, while well-established\, often lack sensitivity in early disease\, are vulnerable to rater and practice effects\, and may insufficiently capture subtle but clinically meaningful benefits. \nThis webinar will examine when and how to move beyond single-scale approaches toward more informative composite strategies\, highlighting circumstances in which composites enhance signal detection versus when they introduce additional noise\, complexity\, and interpretability risk. We will explore practical frameworks for integrating functional\, cognitive\, and biomarker measures into coherent endpoint hierarchies that support both mechanistic insight and regulatory relevance. Finally\, we will discuss how real-world evidence and natural history data can be leveraged to select\, calibrate\, and power Phase 2 endpoints capable of detecting meaningful change within shorter trial timeframes\, improving go/no-go decision quality for emerging neurodegenerative therapies. \nKey Learning Objectives:\n– Evaluate the strengths and limitations of traditional subjective scales (e.g.\, ADAS-Cog\, MDS-UPDRS) in Phase 2 neurodegenerative trials and identify when alternative or composite strategies are warranted \n– Apply practical frameworks to integrate cognitive\, functional\, and biomarker endpoints into coherent\, regulator-ready hierarchies that enhance signal detection while minimizing interpretability risk \n– Leverage real-world evidence and natural history datasets to inform endpoint selection\, calibration\, and powering strategies that improve Phase 2 go/no-go decision-making
