From Concept to Medicine - A Comprehensive Drug Development ... by Jim Mitchell

Episode notes

This episode explores how the adoption of continuous flow reactors impacts the safety, efficiency, and scalability of pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. The discussion details the differences in basic process and scale. It goes into detail about better control with safety and then the efficiency of scale on top. The reduction and cost savings are discussed in length as the continuous production becomes something of importance.

The discussion follows how numbering and different ways of working come about, and why they matter from many different angles. From there, concrete examples are laid out for the methods and different facets of operations in all forms of manufacturing, along with what the regulators are doing and what their thoughts may be. The deep dive leads to thinking about even more innovations down the line as technology bec ...
