ISPE Congress on Innovation

New Drug Delivery Systems

9 April

Seminar leaders:
Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Frieß, LMU Department of Pharmacy, Munich, Germany
Berthold Duethorn, Bosch, Germany

Description:

Outlining the latest innovations in drug delivery techniques, this seminar focuses on different techniques, approaches, and constraints in selecting appropriate drug delivery systems and
dosage forms.

With constraint considerations across a range of factors (from geographic to economic, regulatory to organisational) this seminar examines four key drug delivery methods, and through use of case studies and discussion, identifies the challenges and opportunities they present for the future.
