Biography

Dr. Timothy Lee received his Ph.D. in Biochemical Engineering at the University of London, UK. The area of research was focused on the mechanical and catalytic stability of immobilized enzymes. He then did a post-doctoral fellowship at sanofi pasteur, Canada, where he was involved in the optimization of primary recovery processes for bacterial systems, mainly focusing on micro-filtration, centrifugal and chromatographic separations. As a senior development scientist within sanofi pasteur, Dr. Lee has played a key role in the development of different bacterial media, fermentation and clarification optimization and scale-up as well as the transfer of processes to Industrial operations for manufacturing. He has also published several patents and presented extensively globally over the last several years, outlining the work performed in the industry. He continues to interact extensively with vendors to find new technologies to improve and simplify the industrial operation for the manufacture of vaccines. He is currently a deputy director within Industrial operations.
