CPPR Student, Shipra Malik, from Dr. Raman Bahal’s lab at UConn was the recipient of the first ever CPPR Steven Nail Emerging Researcher Award for her 3-Minute Thesis Presentation and poster update of her ongoing project, Effect of Freeze Drying using Cryoprotectants on the stability of Nucleic Acid loaded PLGA nanoparticles.
In May, 65 faculty, industrial scientists, students and guests met to discuss research proposals and ongoing research on innovations in pharmaceutical processing of small and large molecular therapeutics. Steve Nail, one of the founders of CPPR, gave a very motivating keynote address focusing on the people who influenced his career and the pharmaceutical processing field.
