Here, Virtual Reality experts UCL’s Steve Hilton and University of Kent’s Blanka Szulc reflect on key developments in the use of virtual reality in an academic setting and its outlook for the future.
Research suggests that the global sterility testing market will see a nearly $200 billion increase in spending on new products in the next five years.
The preparation of buffer solutions is a crucial component in the downstream manufacturing process for biomolecules; however, it is also one of the most resource-heavy and intensive steps. Solving these downstream issues with new approaches is critical to achieving efficiency and commercial gains within the upstream process. Here, Andrea Johnston…
