Improved Pharma is pleased to announce the return of this popular and informative workshop. Registration and additional information can be found here: SPS-XRPD Workshop
Over 20 guest lecturers have been gathered to present on the following topics:
-
Regulatory aspects - Role of polymorphism in intellectual property rights
- Synchrotron advanced instrumentation and applications in pharma
- Electron diffraction, SAXS, and complementary techniques
- Pair Distribution Function instrumentation and applications
A tutorial section will be held at the beginning of the workshop to provide a primer on the topics of polymorphism, synchrotron XRPD, and Pair Distribution Function. In addition, round table discussions will be held throughout the workshop to discuss the various topics. The full schedule can be found here.
We are extremely grateful for the generous support of our sponsors, especially Materials Development Inc. for supporting the attendance of several students.
“Pharmaceutical development has benefited greatly from synchrotron techniques,” remarked Professor Stephen Byrn of Purdue University and CSO of Improved Pharma. “We are pleased to be able to gather once again to share and discuss the latest advances in this very exciting field.”
The organizing committee consists of representatives from Argonne National Laboratory, Excelsus Structural Solutions, Improved Pharma, and Purdue University
