About the speaker

David Dobnik, PhD in Biotechnology, has been developing new nucleic acid detection/quantification approaches since 2007. He's been working with digital PCR since 2012. From 2016, he has been closely working with companies in the field of gene therapy (such as AveXis (now Novartis Gene Therapies)) to develop and apply methods for precise quantification of viral vectors (e.g. dPCR),observation of viral particles (electron microscopy), and for identification and quantification of impurities (e.g. nucleic acids by high-throughput sequencing (HTS/NGS).

David has been leading the development and tech-transfer projects for pharmaceutical companies focused on the field of gene therapy,helping their process development efforts with characterizations of viral vectors. Lately, most of his work has been focused on developing new approaches for genome integrity evaluation.
