DESCRIPTION
Two years after implementation of cGTP regulations, what lessons have been learned and what procedures are routine? The presentation will focus on recommendations for laboratory cleaning practices. All hospitals have disaster planning, but what are the special needs of the Cell Therapy Laboratory? This lecture will address considerations for mother-nature and man-made disasters as they relate to cell therapy laboratories - the products, equipment, and staff.
