Common Sense Continuous: Simplifying Integrated GMP Operations
Webinar Date/Time: Tue, Sep 8, 2026 11:00 AM EDT
Unlock a practical path to continuous, compliant GMP operations with single-use perfusion and fully connected downstream processing. See how high-cycle, small sub-batches generate richer data, de-risk validation, and accelerate speed, consistency, and scalability.

Event Overview:
Developing safe and effective lipid nanoparticle (LNP) and liposomal therapeutics depends on accurate characterization of critical quality attributes throughout development and manufacturing.
In this webinar, we'll review evolving regulatory expectations from the FDA, EMA, and USP and discuss why attributes such as particle size, size distribution, surface charge, and particle morphology are essential for product quality. We'll then introduce field-flow fractionation coupled with multi-angle light scattering (FFF-MALS) as a versatile analytical platform that provides size-resolved characterization while preserving native particle structure.
Through practical examples and implementation guidance, attendees will learn how FFF-MALS can strengthen analytical workflows and support regulatory-ready characterization.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Review recent and upcoming regulatory changes affecting LNP and liposomal drug critical quality attributes.
- Learn how FFF‑MALS can address critical quality attributes.
- Discover resources and practical tips for implementation.
Who Should Attend:
This webinar is designed for scientists, analysts, and lab managers working on vaccine, lipid nanoparticle (LNP), or liposome characterization, as well as professionals at CDMOs, CROs, and testing organizations looking to expand their analytical capabilities.
