AAV Production and Process Development
Develop and scale AAV production processes, including IOX gradient purification and affinity column purification, for increased yield and optimized turnaround.
Perform cell culture for AAV production (adherent and suspension).
Operate bioreactors, AKTA systems, pumps, mixers, and automated buffer exchange systems to streamline and automate purification workflows.
Continuously improve purification methods (e.g., AKTA tandem purification) to automate and streamline multi-sample processes.
AAV Characterization and Assay Development
Run AAV potency, biodistribution, transduction efficiency, and immunofluorescence assays to evaluate AAV performance in mammalian cell lines.
Perform dd PCR, sequencing, and ELISA-based assays for quantitative and qualitative characterization of AAV vectors, including titer, purity, and genome integrity assessments.
Conduct in-depth analysis on AAV stability, aggregation, and particle-to-infectivity ratios to refine vector quality and consistency
Collaborate on optimizing purification and buffer exchange protocols to enhance yield, purity, and formulation stability across multiple AAV serotypes.
Support upstream cell culture scale-up with a focus on consistent AAV quality and reproducibility for downstream characterization assays.
Inventory, Documentation, and Workflow Management
Manage lab inventory, ensuring timely ordering of supplies and efficient use of resources.
Maintain accurate records and data using platforms such as Benchling Workflow; author SOPs, testing summaries, and production batch records.
Produce AAV lots to support research and preclinical studies, ensuring all production steps meet quality and consistency standards.
Collaboration and Training
Train and guide team members in AAV production techniques.
Support viral transduction for in vitro and in vivo applications.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to meet project goals, and advance novel vectors into pipeline.
Lead troubleshooting efforts for production challenges and ensure compliance with established protocols.
