Synthace’s multidisciplinary team of researchers and software engineers have developed the Antha software platform to lower the barriers for scientists to execute sophisticated experiments with automated laboratory equipment. Learn how Synthace has combined the flexibility of its intuitive software with the power of DoE to optimise bioprocesses in-house and with their industry customers. In this webinar, Michael Sadowski shows Synthace’s approach to automating the planning and execution of DoE leads to rapid insights and improved decision making for a number of applications within bioprocess development.

In this webinar you will learn how Design of Experiments:

  • Provides a structured approach to understanding systems as complex as biological processes
  • Can be applied to a range of upstream and downstream processes to reduce time to scientific insight
  • Achieves even faster and more efficient process development when coupled with tailored software and automation equipment
