Science and Engineering Principles Applied to Pharmaceutical Technology for Solid Formulations
Sunday, November 11
8:30 am – 4:00 pm
Short Course
ACPE #073-999-07-506-L04
Pharmaceutical technology is obviously an interdisciplinary branch of engineering. Modern pharmaceutical technology cannot advance without the applications of general science and engineering principles. There is a need for pharmaceutical scientists to proactively borrow from science and engineering and other interdisciplinary fields to solve challenging formulation and processing problems for solid dosage forms. The objective of this short course is to introduce current science and engineering principles of relevance to pharmaceutical applications. The target audience for the short course includes all levels of scientists from industry, academia and government involved in a diverse range of focus groups involved in formulation and manufacturing activities. The short course will last one day and will involve interdisciplinary experts from both academia and industry.
