Biopharmaceutics

Our research activities in Biopharmaceutics focuses on drug pharmacokinetics, in-vivo/in-vitro relationships and the use of Design-of- Experiments (DOE) to predict and interpret drug absorption and pharmacodynamics.

Current research examines ways to translate PK-PD elucidations of Class II and Class III biopharmaceutical compounds into new therapeutic benefits.

Formulation Sciences

Our research activities focus on novel science and technologies to develop and understand dosage forms with scientific precision and performance predictability.

Current research in formulation science includes the deployment of experimental designs (factorial and neural networks) in pre-formulation and formulation development.

Manufacturing Technology

Our research activities focus on the sciences and technologies used to develop manufacturing processes as well as manufacturing scale-up models for the final dosage form of medicines.

Drug Delivery

Our research in drug delivery emphasizes the development of controlled oral drug delivery systems with potential benefits of patient compliance and reduced intra-subject variability.

Current research examines ways of adaptive and extended release oral drug delivery systems for predictive release and absorption of therapeutic compounds.
