Welcome to the front lines of biotechnology. In this 40-minute experience, students will step into the role of a new technician at a state-of-the-art biomanufacturing facility. They will be trained on how cells are grown to produce therapeutics and learn how they are purified in a safe and sterile manner using aseptic technique. Students will learn the rules, standards, and Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) that technicians must follow to get a treatment from the laboratory to patients.

Learning Objectives

  • Standards Alignments + Connections

  • Activity Components


  • Keep Going! Your Students May Also Enjoy...
