ABOUT THE IDEA - 'Medicines on Demand' 


Title: Medicines on Demand
Proposed Health Transformation: Manufacturing protein-based therapeutics at the point of care in hours so that they are immediately affordably available to anyone, anywhere, anytime.
Current Implementation: Currently drugs are manufactured in large, expensive centralized facilities (think of a Pfizer, Merck or Genentech plant). Drugs must be made over several weeks and shipped refrigerated.
What's New: Our disruptive innovation will empower communities by allowing manufacturing locally, as and when needed. Distributed manufacturing will speed up drug and vaccine development and delivery.
Evidence Statement: This paper demonstrates the manufacturing of several diagnostic therapeutic and vaccine candidate proteins in under 24 hours from a suitcase size device.
Evidence Citation: Point-of-care production of therapeutic proteins of good-manufacturing-practice quality  https://www.nature.com/articles/s41551-018-0259-1
