News, conferences and events

Maxim Bird and Oscar Mercado Valenzo will be joining Daryl William's team to explore the interactions between design, manufacturing and the physical stability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and their formulations.

Hamish Mitchell will be working with Jerry Heng to further develop understanding and predicting the solubility of drug compounds and their crystallisation behaviour including structure prediction and physical stability.

Damien Van de Berg will work with Nilay Shah on the optimisation of process technologies.

James Odgers will be working with Ruth Misener in the Department of Computing on Smart Chemometrics.

Leticia Sanders de Almada will be working with Claire Adjiman and Costas Pantelides on enhancing the relevance of Crystal Structure Prediction methodologies to pharamceutical molecule and process development.

Congratulations to Professor George Jackson on his Fellowship to the in recognition of "contributions to science, both in fundamental research resulting in greater understanding, and also in leading and directing scientific and technological progress in industry and research establishments."

Professor Jackson is at the forefront of the discipline of molecular systems engineering, combining fundamental physical understanding with engineering knowhow in the intelligent molecular design and optimisation of processes and products.

Prof Amparo Galindo holds 911��պ��'s Lilly/Royal Academy of Engineering Research Chair in Pharmaceutical Molecular Systems. The post was established to enable exceptional researchers to adress some of the biggest challenges faced by the engineering industry. Read the news item on the .

When launched the PharmaSEL research programme was featured in 911��պ�� College News, , and in the outlining the UK government's industrial strategy.
