Research Team
PROGENITER is organized for success with a closely knit core team and a layered interaction network that enables synergistic collaboration with adjacent disciplines within the broader expertise of CIEBH teams including social sciences, biomanufacturing, cell therapy and LNP formulation.
Our network is also directly linked to our academic and industrial partners to achieve seamless translation of the discoveries into products, with IP aspects proactively facilitated by the technology transfer offices at The University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University.
