A value-packed brochure with top pharma companies joining, including GSK, Tempris, Shire, Takeda Vaccines, Johnson & Johnson and more, who will be presenting a vast range of topics and issues within freeze-drying. http://www.lyophilization-usa.com/prc

Here's a run-down of the hot sessions that cannot afford to missed:

An exclusive panel discussion has been put together at Lyophilization USA to discuss the different processes and fundamental steps to optimize manufacturing performance.

Panel Discussion: Batch Process vs Continuous Process
Day 2 | November 17th, 2017 | @15:20
Panelist 1: Eric Munson, Professor, Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Kentucky
Panelist 2: Jean- Francois Michiels, Senior Statistician, Arlenda

The panelists will be discussing:

- The challenges with continuous freeze drying and how to overcome these.
- Methodology to reduce the processing time of the fundamental steps.
- Areas in need of innovation with regards to lyophilization.

Tempris Sensor Technology (developed by iQ-mobil solutions GmbH), are delighted to be sponsoring Lyophilization USA, and will be presenting their topic which will discuss how their technology allows to capture valuable temperature data, wirelessly to evaluate the robustness of the Lyo processes.
