6. Why manufacturers can rely on robots to bridge efficiency gaps and streamline processes
Robots are revolutionising manufacturing, but manual programming hampers their potential. Robot offline programming (OLP) offers a digital solution, reducing human work hours by up to 80% and ensuring swift task readiness.

12. The early screening imperative: the key role of in vitro diagnostic products
In the post-COVID era, healthcare grapples with staff shortages and treatment delays, emphasising the need for early diagnosis. While regulatory changes pose challenges, EU extensions provide relief.

14. Peptide therapeutics: reconstructing protein surfaces using constrained peptides
Proteins govern crucial biological processes, making PPIs vital for understanding and treating diseases. Peptide-based mimics offer tailored therapeutic approaches, yet optimising their efficacy poses challenges.
22. The six keys to client satisfaction in biologics CDMO services
In the UK, one in 50 adults is living with a chronic wound, leading to more than £8bn in healthcare costs in 2017/2018.1 However, these numbers are likely to be higher since the pandemic as a result of reduced care in 2020 and 2021, impacting patient outcomes.
