The ECI Single-Use Technologies conference series started in 2015 with the unique aim to advance knowledge in the fundamental science and engineering underpinning Single-Use Technology (SUT). Th fourth conference in the series, Single Use Technologies IV: Building the Future, has been postponed until March 20-23, 2022 in Marseille, France. To highlight the key role that the ECI SUT conference plays and the importance of current challenges around SUT for both users and vendors, we are planning a three-part webinar to bring the community together and engaged in these discussions. We hope that by dividing the presentations over three days, we will have made it more convenient for those in the community to attend.
The webinar will focus on novel biomaterials, sensors and their integration, SUT for continuous processing and for emerging technologies and for technology performance. All sessions will include presentations from expert speakers and a Q&A panel session.
The conference attracts speakers and attendees from industrial and academia, single-use final product (e.g., bags, assemblies) manufacturers, film/resin manufacturers as well as keynote speakers from the biopharmaceutical industry, experts in polymers/materials science and manufacturers of novel biomedical devices.
