January 22, 2021 -- Sartorius Stedim Biotech has donated $1.5 million to Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) for the creation of the Sartorius Cell Culture Facility, which is slated to open later this year on the University Park campus.
The donation expands upon an existing partnership that dates back to 2018, when the company provided the university with fermentation technology and created the Sartorius Fermentation Gallery.
The new cell culture facility will be a training and development hub for Penn State employees and students, the two said in a press release.
