Responsible for drug product formulation and process development, and definition of the product presentation for biologics (proteins, conjugates, peptides, etc.) and genetic medicine (AAV, LNPs, Cell Therapy).
Responsibilities
- Develop and apply biophysical characterization strategies to assess molecular properties, stability, aggregation, and formulation performance to support product development decisions.
- Apply a strong understanding of the formulation and analytical challenges associated with ultra-high-concentration biologics and co-formulations, including their impact on stability, viscosity, manufacturability, and product performance.
- Support scale-up and technology transfer activities to internal and external manufacturing sites.
- Utilize automation and high throughput screening technologies to accelerate biologics formulation development and enable efficient evaluation of multiple formulation variables.
- Lead the design and execution of biologics drug product formulation and process development, characterization and robustness studies.
