PHRM 591Advanced Drug Delivery Systems

Catalog

Building on the foundational knowledge gained in Pharmaceutics 1&2 course sequence, this course explores a variety of advanced drug delivery systems, for treatment and diagnostic purposes. Emphasis will be placed on, but not limited to, polymer-based systems, nano-carriers & nano-based technologies for the delivery of therapeutics and liposomes. Discussions will extend to approved/marketed drug products that implement such novel technologies, as well as those in clinical drug development or still at the research/pre-clinical phase.
