Abstract

Commercialization of Cell Therapies – Laboratory to Bedside

Michael michael.bennett@ct.catapult.org.uk, Director of Business Development, Cell and Gene Therapy Catapult

There are many teams of scientists working diligently in the broad field of regenerative medicine.  The goal of much of this work is to create new medicines that have the potential to cure debilitating diseases that conventional small molecule medicines cannot.  In my presentation I will discuss some of the challenges facing us all within regenerative medicine and some of the solutions that the cell and gene therapy catapult has seen implemented around the world to assist the commercialisation of promising laboratory science through pre-clinical testing, clinical trial and to the patient bedside.
