Sakthi Moorthy, PhD - CCRM Advance Team

Sakthi Moorthy, PhD

Lead Scientist
CCRM Advance Team

Sakthi Moorthy earned her PhD at Anna University Chennai, India focused on functional genomics. Sakthi brings more than 8 years of research experience in applying CRISPR technology to generate genome engineered cell lines from her postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Toronto. Sakthi joined CCRM in January 2021, as a Lead Scientist and has actively contributed to generating “off the shelf” allogeneic cell lines for the development of cellular therapeutics. Sakthi is actively involved in developing processes for GMP gene editing that enable the efficient generation of genome engineered-cell lines.

 

Phil Beaudette - CCRM Bridge Team

Phil Beaudette

Lead Scientist I
CCRM Bridge Team

Philip joined CCRM in 2019 where he has worked primarily with viral vectors. His primary focus has been on increasing viral productivity through optimizing growth kinetics in conjunction with infectious titers. This work has been executed from small scale up to 10L stirred tank reactors. Previously Philip worked for over a decade in the biofuels industry, culminating in several visits to Brazil where he was involved with deploying the technology at scale in a production facility that was the first of its kind in South America.
