When answering this question, highlight your understanding of the various factors that influence cell culture conditions and your hands-on experience with optimizing these factors. Mention specific techniques such as media optimization, control of environmental parameters (e.g., pH, temperature, oxygen levels), and the use of bioreactors. Provide examples of how you have successfully optimized cell culture conditions in the past, leading to improved yield or quality of the biological product. For instance, you might say:
"In my previous role, I optimized the cell culture conditions by adjusting the nutrient composition of the media and fine-tuning the pH and temperature settings. This resulted in a 20% increase in the yield of the target protein. Additionally, I implemented a fed-batch culture strategy, which significantly improved cell viability and productivity."
