One of the key elements of the risk-based approach espoused by the FDA's cGMP initiative for the 21st century is the minimization of risk associated with manufacturing processes based upon the development of thorough understanding and enhanced control during research and development. In this presentation, two examples will be used to illustrate how modern research tools are being leveraged to achieve faster development and optimization, and the achievement of reproducible control over chemical processes.
