We will confirm s uccessful registrations by email prior to the seminar.\n\n\nSpeakers:\n\nD r. Nedim Emil Altaras is the current leader of Technical Development at Mo derna\, where he has a distinguished track record that spans over 20 years in the field of vaccines and biologics. He has played key roles in overse eing Global Product\, Development\, Manufacturing\, Supply Chain\, and Ope rations teams. His roles at Moderna have included Head of External Manufac turing and CMC Vaccines lead.\n\nPrior to his current role\, Dr. Altaras w as responsible for setting up the manufacturing operations at Seres Therap eutics\, which focused on the production of new live biologics for microbi ome therapeutics. His career commenced at Merck & Co.\, Inc. in Bioprocess R&D\, where he supported the development of various early-stage vaccine c andidates. He held several significant positions during his tenure at Merc k\, leading the Fermentation and Cell Culture Development and overseeing d evelopment teams for multiple vaccine programs. Later\, he moved into the Manufacturing division\, where he established the value-chain management f or various vaccine products and led the creation of manufacturing and supp ly chain operations for a partnership product.\n\nDr. Altaras's educationa l background includes a Bachelor of Engineering from ɬÀï·¬\, a warded in 1994\, and a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University o f Wisconsin-Madison\, completed in 1999. He also holds a Master's degree i n Organizational Dynamics from the University of Pennsylvania\, obtained i n 2014.\n\n\nDr. Amy Rabideau is a Fellow and the Technical Lead for Early Development at Moderna. In this role\, she leads a cross functional team focused on defining and characterizing the processes used to manufacture t he products advancing into the clinic. Amy previously led the Early Phase mRNA process development team at Moderna\, responsible for defining and im plementing mRNA processes for Moderna’s Early Phase portfolio. She led a t eam of scientists and engineers in advancing our understanding of RNA proc ess development\, characterizing the product and process related impuritie s\, and devising production strategies to reduce immunostimulatory impurit y formation\, including engineering T7 RNA polymerases. Prior to her 8.5 y ear tenure at Moderna\, Amy completed her PhD in Biological Chemistry at M IT and her BS in Chemistry and Biology at Syracuse University.\n DTSTART:20240327T123000Z DTEND:20240327T153000Z SUMMARY:Technical Seminar: Diverse Applications of mRNA-LNP Technology URL:/engine/channels/event/technical-seminar-diverse-a pplications-mrna-lnp-technology-355947 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
