Seminar

Combining Data-Rich Experimentation with Modeling to Drive Productivity

Übersicht der Inhalte

  • Case studies from key industry players
  • Recent work with data-rich experimentation and kinetic modeling
  • Live Q&A with industry experts

This free online event is for chemists and engineers who are interested in obtaining a deeper understanding of their processes at every scale to deliver increasingly complex processes under compressed timelines. 

Topics include:

  • Use of automation to increase the information density of every experiment
  • Innovative problem-solving tools to avoid "trial and error experimentation", which carries a significant risk of failure
  • The use of predictive process modeling that can be built quickly and allows users to remain focused on process goals

Geoff Purdum

Kinetic Modeling to De-risk Process Changes as a Part of Life-Cycle Management

Geoff Purdum - Principal Scientist, Chemical Process Development, Bristol Myers Squibb

Geoff Purdum is a Principal Scientist in the Chemical Process Development (CPD) department at Bristol Myers Squibb (New Brunswick, NJ). Geoff is a member of the Reaction Science and Engineering group within CPD, focusing on building process knowledge using real-time analytical tools. Geoff joined BMS in 2018 after completing his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering at Princeton University, where he studied polymorphism in molecular semiconductor thin films (w. Prof. Lynn Loo). Geoff also holds a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst.
