We’re pleased to announce the soft launch of The Aby J. Mathew Center for Biopreservation Excellence (“The Center”) in Bothell, WA.
* The Center bridges an expertise gap in biopreservation by providing therapy developers with data, tools, and mentorship to safeguard cell and tissue viability and accelerate clinical translation.
* The Center is led by Dr. Alireza Abazari and applies deep cryobiology expertise with trusted bioproduction tools to specifically help cell and gene therapy and biopharma organizations design optimized, reproducible, and regulatory-ready cell processing methods.
* The Center is named in honor of Dr. Aby J Mathew and his instrumental role in developing BioLife’s foundational biopreservation media technologies, enabling BioLife’s commercial growth and market success, and his pioneering contributions to advancing the science and integration of biopreservation, especially within the novel clinical and commercial CGT field.
* Dr. Mathew has been working on biopreservation media technologies for over 30 years and has been a founding team member of BioLife Solutions for over 25 years.
