The study of such diverse and nano-sized exosomes is extremely challenging, due to immense difficulties in differentiating dynamic and heterogeneous vesicle populations presented in the in vivo system. EV preparation and cargo loading are a tremendous technical hurdle for enabling clinical translation due to the difficulties in isolation and low efficiency. Such knowledge gap would be critical via gathering synergistic efforts from both academia and industry collaboration. This presentation will introduce novel bioengineering solutions to exosome isolation, payload manipulation, and cargo loading, and introduce cellular sources for EV production and molecular engineering.
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion, participant will be able to obtain knowledge on extracellular vesicle and exosome fundamentals.
Upon completion, participant will be able to gather sufficient information on the manufacturing and clinical translational utility of extracellular vesicles and exosomes.
Upon completion, participant will be able to gain the knowledge on the cutting edge solutions to exosome therapeutic development in precision medicine.
