Project description
 

The project focusses on the optimization and validation of continuous and flexible pharmaceutical production processes via print technologies. This project aims to employ inkjet and flexographic technologies in a totally new manner in fabrication of drug-delivery systems and more specifically to control the drug-substance and drug product properties through a real time process analytical approach.
