Manufacturing of Pharmaceutical Proteins

Now in its third edition, the text covers all aspects of biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Structured like a textbook, it is aimed at a wide audience in industry and academia and can be used as a reference as well as for training purposes.

Auteur

*Stefan Behme, PhD, has held several positions within the pharma and biotech industry over the last 20 years with Bayer AG and former Schering AG, Germany. Trained as chemical engineer, his industrial assignments included: managing healthcare investment projects in Germany and the US, biotech manufacturing operations, strategic sourcing of finished pharmaceuticals, and quality assurance in one of the world's largest drug manufacturing facilities. In parallel he has been passing on his knowledge to students of the Universities of Dortmund (Germany) and Berlin as lecturer for GMP-aspects of biopharmaceutical manufacturing and general life science manufacturing processes. In 2009 he published the first edition of the book Manufacturing of Pharmaceutical Proteins: from Technology to Economy, which has developed into a popular reference and was followed by a further expanded edition in 2015.*
