2nd School on oral dosage and drug delivery systems.

Summary
The Summer School will be organised and hosted by UoH. The programme will consist of lectures on the state of the art and recent progress in the development of oral dosage forms and advanced delivery systems, such as nano- and microparticles, minitablets, self microemulsifying drug delivery systems (SMEDDS) or mesoporous materials. Apart from the lectures, some of which are planned to be given by external high-profile experts in the field of oral drug delivery, School participants will be involved in practical exercises on different formulation techniques (e.g. fluid bed granulation, spray drying, minitablets) and advanced techniques for in-depth characterisation of dosage forms (e.g. various modifications of Raman spectroscopy) owing to UoH capabilities. Apart from upskilling ORBIS ESRs in the area of oral drug delivery studies, the Summer School will offer an excellent academia-industry networking opportunity by gathering the members of all Consortium Partners.
