Prof. Jarka Glassey

Jarka Glassey is professor of chemical engineering education at the University of Newcastle, UK. She is currently the Vice President EFCE and immediate past Vice President Learned Society at IChemE. She is a UK delegate to the EFCE Working Parties on Education and on Quality by Design and a Board member of the European Society of Biochemical Engineering Sciences - ESBES. Her research career as a biochemical engineer focuses on delivering high-quality research at the interface of academia and industrial impact. Her research outputs in the areas of bioprocess development, modelling, monitoring and control, Quality by design (QbD) and Process Analytical Technologies (PAT) have made significant contributions to R&D in the biopharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals and food & drink sectors both within and outside the UK. The research approach is based on the fundamental understanding and monitoring of the biological processes using post genomic methodologies and combining it with engineering principles of scale-up and process intensification. Most recently her group is investigating the use of these methodologies in monoclonal antibody manufacture, cell gene therapy, viral production and ADC production. Specifically, her main interests stem from the area of advanced monitoring and control of processes and, over the years, she has developed and disseminated novel control strategies for the optimisation of recombinant protein production by integrating the physiological and engineering approaches. She is also actively involved in the accreditation of chemical engineering degree programmes across the world and explores active methodologies, such as the use of immersive technologies, in chemical engineering education.
