Polymers in Drug Delivery

Tuesday 15 June 2010, 9.00 am – 4.00 pm
at IDA, House of Engineers, Kalvebod Brygge 31 – 33, Copenhagen

New technological development in polymer-based encapsulations and controlled drug release systems offers possibilities for optimizing the administration of drugs. These improvements contribute to make medical treatment more efficient and to minimize side effects and other types of inconveniences for patients.

From a commercial point of view it may also be of interest to extend the patent protection of a company’s “blockbuster” by inventing new routes of administration of the drug.

The conference brings into focus the exciting and innovative perspectives within polymer-based systems for drug delivery and medical device-drug combination products, including nano-encapsulation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API), controlled release devices, programmable hydrogels, medical chewing-gum, Danish invented silicone-based medical devices with reduced risk of infection, and much more. You will also get the chance to hear about the huge gap between remarkable laboratory products and commercial success.

The conference program features expert speakers from the chemical and pharmaceutical industries as well as national and international research organisations.

Besides the possibility of gaining knowledge regarding new administration systems of API’s, you’ll also get a chance for networking and perhaps setting up individual appointments with speakers and other participants during the coffee breaks and lunch.

Registration: Not later than Friday 11 June 2010 to IDA at Phone +45 33 18 48 18 or electronically at www.ida.dk – Meeting no. 101489. If you do not understand Danish, you can also register to Helle Borch hbo@ida.dk
