Description

Biologic products such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), viral vaccines, and some gene therapies are produced using cell lines and may become contaminated with adventitious agents during the manufacturing process via cell banks, raw materials, or the environment. These adventitious agents can potentially cause harm to recipients. Current testing methods are very time-consuming and may not detect all types of viral adventitious agents. Next-generation sequencing offers the potential for nontargeted detection and rapid turnaround ti...

Grantor Contact InformationMegan Hussey Cleveland, Phone: 301.975.5473Grantor Emailmegan.cleveland@nist.govOther Grantor InformationThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
