Meet Associate Scientist and Process Engineer with @TheDHVI, David Clarke! He has been working with the DHVI Good Manufacturing Program for seven years. He encourages junior scientists to use any opportunity for hands-on, experiential learning. #meetCIVICs

ALT David Clarke , Duke VMTC, Associate scientist II GMP/ Process Engineer II, Duke Human Vaccine Institute , What's your research focus?, For 7 years, I’ve worked with the DHVI Good Manufacturing Program (DGP) to manufacture bulk drug substance & bulk drug product for phase 1 clinical trials. I've had the opportunity to work on novel HIV, flu, & COVID-19 vaccine platforms spanning from monoclonal antibodies to mRNAs., Do you have any advice for junior scientists?, Experiential learning is the best type of learning!, What was the last technique you used in lab?, Ultrafiltration and diafiltration
