The Bioprocessing Separations Consortium interacts with an Industrial Advisory Board that is composed of experts in biomanufacturing, separations technologies, and industrial biotechnology. The Industrial Advisory Board helps the Consortium maintain an industry-relevant focus and contributes knowledge of recent technology advances and challenges.

The Advisory Board meets with the Consortium bi-annually to

• Review results and progress relative to work plans
• Prioritize research projects
• Inform development of Consortium strategy for the future

Interactions with our Industrial Advisory Board and a broader group of industry that was convened at a listening day in 2017 (report posted here) have informed the evolution of our research portfolio.
