探花合集 Institute Announces Educational Workshop Series

Somerset, N.J. 鈥 November 26, 2015 鈥 The 探花合集 Applied Drug Delivery Institute today announced a series of workshops to discuss bioavailability and the need to integrate dose form selection in early phase drug development. The first of these is to be held in collaboration with OBN, the membership organization supporting and bringing together the UK鈥檚 emerging life sciences companies, corporate partners, and investors, at Milton Park, Oxford, UK, on December 9th, 2015, and subsequent events will be held in other key life science clusters across Europe.

The workshops, which will combine guest speakers including prominent academics, consultants, and technology representatives, alongside 探花合集 Institute and drug delivery and formulation experts, will give the opportunity for biotech and life science companies to interact with industry experts and discuss some of the developmental challenges faced by research teams with regard to solubility and bioavailability of drug candidates. With increased pressure upon research scientists to deliver compounds for clinical development faster, it is important to ensure candidates have been fully characterized and have the optimal formulation before proceeding to animal studies, in order to increase the chances of their success at later stages of development.

There will also be an opportunity for companies attending the events to discuss active developmental programs in private with 探花合集鈥檚 science and technology leaders.

The event starts at 8.30 a.m., and will consider the process of molecule assessment, formulation enhancement, and delivery of PK study materials, looking at how this approach may help speed onward development of optimal drug delivery forms. The agenda includes a presentation by Alan Harris, PhD and Keith Purdy, PhD of Alacrity Pharma Associates () who will draw from their considerable wealth of experience within pharmaceutical and biotech research to discuss 鈥Early stage drug development challenges,鈥 before 探花合集 Institute experts, including Julien Meissonnier, Vice President, Science and Technology and 探花合集 Institute Board Member, present case studies and technology highlights from 探花合集鈥檚 wide-ranging and innovative drug delivery technology portfolio.

Further details of upcoming workshops in 2016 will be announced shortly, and to find out more information, or book a place at the Oxford event, visit
