On The Ground At BPI: Industry Reflections With Carl Schoellhammer, Ph.D.
DeciBio partner Carl Schoellhammer, Ph.D., speaks on the record with Bioprocess Online's chief editor Tyler Menichiello at the 2025 BioProcess International conference in Boston.
Nobel laureate, David Baltimore passed away at 87 years old, on September 6, 2025. He was widely regarded as a scientific visionary who at just 37, co-discovered reverse transcriptase, an enzyme that flipped molecular biology on its head by showing that genetic information could flow from RNA back to DNA, not just the other way around.
During a Bioprocess Online Live event, “Single-Use Harmonization Needs A Tune Up," panelists discuss a way forward for the industry to unlock the true flexibility and promise of single-use technology.
An element of the 2025 BioPlan Associates annual report and survey took Chief Editor Louis Garguilo by surprise. The report intimates that biopharmaceutical manufacturing faces a fractured CDMO market. Despite solid data to back that assertion up, Garguilo presents a very different view, one based on what many readers have expressed.
Abalone Bio's CEO and co-founder, Richard Yu, Ph.D., explains the company's Functional Antibody Selection Technology (FAST) platform and its approach to developing a pipeline of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) mAbs.

September 2025 — CDMO Opportunities And Threats Report
Each month, Outsourced Pharma works in conjunction with PharmSource, part of GlobalData, to present its “Contract Manufacturing: Opportunities and Threats (CMOT) Report” to our readers. The report identifies CDMOs that might be impacted by key events affecting their clients, including company acquisitions, product acquisitions and licenses, product approvals, late clinical product terminations, and FDA rejections.
