Cherwell to spotlight Delivering Knowledge initiative at PHSS Annual Conference 2024

Educational platform shares expertise in Environmental Monitoring and Process Validation

Bicester, UK, 22^nd August 2024: Cherwell, cleanroom microbiology solutions expert, is poised to make a significant impact at the Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Sciences Society (PHSS) Annual Conference on Wednesday, 11th September 2024, at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Oxford. This year, Cherwell is not just participating; they aim to lead the charge in sharing cutting-edge knowledge, and fostering innovation within the pharmaceutical industry by highlighting its Delivering Knowledge initiative.

This year’s conference is set to be a pivotal event, uniting professionals to tackle the latest regulatory challenges, particularly those related to EU GMP Annex 1. The agenda is rich with insights into global compliance, risk management, and innovations in aseptic processing and contamination control. Key highlights include a keynote from Graham Carroll of the MHRA, and a dynamic panel discussion that promises to delve into these critical industry issues.

While Cherwell will showcase its comprehensive range of cleanroom microbiology products – including its Redipor® prepared media range, SAS microbial air samplers, 

and innovative Redipor Beta Bag – a key focus will be on the company’s growing Delivering Knowledge initiative which is building a free video library of useful industry expertise. This educational non-commercial programme is designed to support and galvanise industry collaboration by sharing insights, challenges and best practices, within environmental monitoring, process validation and beyond.

By leveraging the latest research and industry expertise in its Delivering Knowledge platform, Cherwell is committed to broadening the community’s understanding of important issues, problems and developments through engaging video content. For example, a recent highlight is Quality Specialist Tamryn Hassel’s deep dive into desiccation in agar plates.

Cherwell is actively inviting other industry experts to contribute to Delivering Knowledge, with the aim of making this a true, community-driven effort, and a go-to industry resource to support growth and innovation.

Thomas Parkhill, one of Cherwell’s Business Development Managers, will represent the company at the conference. Reflecting on the significance of the PHSS Annual Conference, Parkhill noted, "PHSS provides a unified voice on regulation across the pharmaceutical industry. With the recent updates to Annex 1, these conferences have become incredibly useful for sharing industry knowledge and understanding."

Parkhill’s presence at the 2024 event will highlight Cherwell’s ability to support the pharmaceutical industry through the challenging and constantly changing regulatory landscape – a position underpinned by proactive initiatives such as Delivering Knowledge which complements the knowledge exchange offered at industry events such as PHSS.

Parkhill added, “Cherwell’s attendance at the PHSS Annual Conference 2024 is not just about showcasing our cleanroom microbiology products – it’s about leading a conversation. Through Delivering Knowledge, we aim to amplify the exchange of ideas and expertise that will shape the future of environmental monitoring and process validation in the pharmaceutical industry. We encourage attendees to come and connect with the Cherwell team and be part of this exciting journey.”
