Usher in the New Year with

ISPE-CaSA Education

If your New Year's resolutions include self improvement, there's no better place to start than ISPE-CaSA's first education event of 2024.

Join us at Rosecomb Beer Garden January 25th for a special presentation titled: ASME Bioprocess Equipment: Perspectives from an Insider

This session offers advice on looking within the standards, specifications, and procedures/practices of your organization, and count the number of times the BPE is incorporated by reference (hint, it may be quite a few!)

Then, learn how to join the BPE in its mission of improving and standardizing the design and construction of the equipment we use every day!

The speaker is Keith Melchiors, a Senior Process Engineer at Biogen in RTP, where he works within the Biologics and Advanced Therapies Engineering Technical Authority.  

Rosecomb Beer Garden is located at Parkside Town Commons, 1143 Parkside Main St., Cary, NC 27519.

The hour-long program starts at 4:00 p.m. and will be followed by our regular Therapeutic Thursday networking event in the same location at 5:30 p.m.

The $15 for the education program inludes a free beer or wine afterwards. There is no charge if you plan to attend only Therapeutic Thursday.

Therapeutic Thursday Networking

Two Therapeutic Thursday Events in January to Kick Off the New Year

Among our most popular networking events are our signature Therapeutic Thursdays. They take place in both the Raleigh & Durham area and across the entire CaSA region (NC, SC, GA, FL, AL, TN). Therapeutic Thursday offers a great way to unwind and connect in a friendly, relaxed environment.

We depend on sponsorships to support these events and appreciate the companies that participate.
