What We Do
At the Marcus Center of Excellence for Cell Biomanufacturing, we advance the science and practice of cell manufacturing research — focusing on early-stage improvements in quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC), process optimization, scale-up, and automation. We collaborate with clinical and commercial partners to make manufacturing faster, more reproducible, more potent, and more cost-effective.
