Abstract
A method and system for increasing process performance in a biological process comprising at least one process step, the method comprising: (a) an identification phase, in which at least seven factors are identified, wherein a factor is defined as a feature of or within a process that when modified will affect the performance of the process, and wherein the factors are selected from at least one process factor and at least one genetic factor; (b) a factor screening phase, in which individual and combined contributions to process performance of each of the at least seven factors are determined, such that at least one multi-factorial interaction is identified; and (c) a refinement phase, in which higher order interactions that result in an increase in process performance between the at least seven factors are identified and tested. The method may be incorporated within automated laboratory and design of experiment systems.
