Vaccine Manufacturing

The group was the lead on manufacturing scale-up of the University of Oxford COVID-19 vaccine up to the point of transfer to AstraZeneca. This included the development of the novel low-cost large-scale manufacturing process, and initiating the formation of the UK & international 'distributed manufacturing site' consortium which has produced over a billion doses.

It is also the lead on the University's Bioprocess and Analytical Development (BiPAD) team, with particular interest in bringing together clinical and bioprocess understanding to make small-scale GMP manufacturing more cost-effective, lowering the barrier to experimental medicine and early-phase clinical development of novel interventions. 

Professor Sandy Douglas is Co-Investigator on the EPSRC funded Future Vaccine Manufacturing Research Hub (Vax-Hub).
