  • Flexible solutions for closed, automated and scalable cell manufacturing processes
  • Experience supporting customers in real time as they transition from translational to clinical manufacturing workflows
  • GMP manufacturing facility with ISO 5/7/8 cleanrooms to ensure a reliable supply chain free from contamination

Featured Research Areas

Immune Cell Therapy
Streamline Your Path to Clinic

Drive robust activation, expansion, and functional performance of your immune cell therapies with R&D Systems. From culture to analysis, our flexible animal-free GMP and closed‑system workflow solutions support reliable non-viral genome engineering, cell expansion and phenotype maintenance, while reducing risk and streamlining cGMP manufacturing, product characterization and regulatory approval.

Power your NK, TCR‑T, and CAR‑T cell therapy programs from preclinical research through clinical production with quality starting materials in process‑ready formats, plus analytical platform automation.

Regenerative Medicine
Improve Your Culture Consistency

Establish reproducible and scalable processes for your stem cell-based advanced therapies with R&D Systems. From first passage to final characterization, our animal-free GMP reagents, AI‑modified proteins, and new synthetic hydrogel support consistent expansion, lineage‑specific differentiation, and downstream biomanufacturing by minimizing variability and improving lot‑to‑lot reproducibility.

Partner with us from early-stage development to large-scale clinical manufacturing to accelerate your stem cell-based therapeutic programs.
