Seminar: 'An introduction to the production of mRNA and saRNA' by Dr Carlo Heirman

Please join us for the upcoming seminar: An introduction to the production of mRNA and saRNA.

PRESENTER Dr Carlo Heirman Process Development - Principal Scientist, eTheRNA immunotherapies

NV ABSTRACT The vaccines that were developed to fight the COVID-19 pandemic have put RNA as a new technology in the spotlight. The speed of the development and production, and the clinical effectiveness of both Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech vaccines exceeded all expectations. The past year has proven that vaccine production at an unprecedented scale of billions of doses is possible with RNA, more than with any other technology. Never before has a vaccine been developed, tested and approved in such a short period of time. In this seminar we will give an insight into currently implemented methods to produce mRNA and some specific elements in the production of self-amplifying RNA.
