Welcome to the the GitHub page for the Digitalization of Biomanufacturing (Dig4Bio).
this page contains the source code for the Dig4Bio workshops.
Digitalization of biomanufacturing is key to increasing efficiency, reducing costs, and ensuring quality control in the production of biopharmaceuticals and advanced therapies. Dig4Bio aims to:
- i) advance the research capacity and profile of the coordinator IST (PT) in the field of digitalisation of biomanufacturing
- ii) strengthen the research management and administrative skills of IST. This will be achieved through a strategic alliance with experts in digital biotechnology from PROSYS, DTU (Chemical and Biochemical Engineering, DK) and lab automation TU Berlin (Chair of Bioprocess Engineering DE). Dig4Bio includes 6 Work Packages (WPs):
WP 1 and WP 2 focus on stepping up the scientific and research management skills of IST through tailored training (workshops, training schools, digital tools, short term visits).
- WP1 Advancing scientific capacity
- WP2 Enhancing research management capacity
for WP3, Dig4Bio partners will collaborate on a pioneering R&I initiative that addresses the question: “How to develop and incorporate a digitalisation framework in the conceptual design, research and development of biomanufacturing processes”. Attention is focused on Escherichia coli-based manufacturing of plasmid DNA, a biomolecule that is gaining increased relevance as a biological (e.g. DNA vaccination, in vivo gene therapy), and as a raw material in the manufacturing of gene/cell therapies (e.g. mRNA vaccines).
- WP3 Joint research activities
WP4 aims to foster close ties, synergies and knowledge exchange between the consortium and stakeholders
- WP4 Clustering Activities
WP5 aims to disseminate findings and promote awareness of the field.
- WP5 (Communication and Dissemination)
WP6 provides the necessary administrative support to ensure the successful and timely execution of all project components. The expected outcomes for Dig4Bio include the elevation of IST profile in digitalisation of biomanufacturing and in research management.
- WP6 Coordination and Management
