Analytical demand of CRISPR gene therapies

Gene Editing?CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing offers substantial improvements over previous gene editing technologies in terms of ease of use, speed, efficacy, and cost. Not surprisingly, CRISPR-Cas9 editing has taken biomedical science by storm. While the technology is relatively simple in handling at the level of basic research, the use of CRISPR genome editing in therapeutical applications poses a bunch of
analytical challenges.

Success together with CDMOs

When the time comes for a biopharma company to outsource its production, or to get support for the development of a new project, the pool of available CDMOs is quite deep. Everyone knows the big players, but maybe they are not suitable for everyone. They have proven expertise but as it happens with big organisations, they are usually not very flexible with increased indirect costs.
