Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am happy to announce a Special Issue centered around cutting-edge research focused on Model-Based Formulation Strategies for Controlled Release of Active Ingredients. The goal of this Special Issue is to provide a forum that highlights theoretical modeling and/or numerical simulations in combination with experimental studies of various advanced formulation strategies. Given the breadth of strategies expected and the complementarity of both modeling and experimental results, we encourage submissions to be written in a style accessible to the broader scientific audience. Additionally, we are looking for high-quality original research which higlights a patient-centered drug-delivery approach.
I look forward to your submissions! The deadline for manuscript submissions is 30 November 2025.
Prof. Dr. Pierre Tchoreloff

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Pharmaceutics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
