 Venue and Travel Information

Conference Description

The Preclinical Form and Formulation for Drug Discovery GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.

The focus of this GRS is innovative drug development techniques for small, large and cell-based drug molecules. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, analytical characterization, drug delivery challenges, and drug product formulation and processing. Additionally, experts in academia and industry will share their experience and provide a general perspective on the future of pharmaceutical research.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Preclinical Form and Formulation for Drug Discovery" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
