Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue “Feature Papers: Emerging Processes, Analytics and Dosage Forms in Pharmaceutical Processing and Drug Delivery” will address new developments in pharmaceutical processing, such as continuous processing that is integrated with process analytical tools (PAT), and where possible, supported by Quality by Design (QbD). The Special Issue also deals with the latest approaches in novel analytical methods that would support the mechanistic evaluation of the materials and processes that would aid the smart design and development of dosage forms. Preference will be awarded to papers that demonstrate contributions from scientists that provide interdisciplinary approaches to understanding pharmaceutical processing and drug delivery. Original research papers and review articles are welcomed.
