PlaceCvent Platform, Online

Freeze Drying has become one of the most important technologies for preserving product quality, extending shelf life, and ensuring long-term stability across a diverse range of applications. From supporting food systems for long-duration space missions to enabling the development and manufacture of biologics, vaccines, and sterile pharmaceuticals, lyophilization plays a vital role wherever product integrity is critical.

This international webinar brings together experts from NASA, academia, and the pharmaceutical industry to share scientific knowledge, practical experience, and emerging innovations in freeze drying. Through expert presentations and an interactive panel discussion, participants will explore the science behind successful lyophilization, advances in pharmaceutical development and manufacturing, and the opportunities that cross-industry collaboration can create for the future of product stability.
