    Read Synopsis

    Workshop 4 Applying Quality by Design in Pharmaceutical Dosage Form Development

    The industrial manufacturers always seek to reduce the time needed for the product development and optimisation of a manufacturing process without compromising the quality. One of the industry initiatives to supported by regulations on product development is the quality by design (QbD).  The QbD is a systematic approach to development that begins with predefined objectives and emphasizes product and process understanding and process control, based on sound science and quality risk management. The design of experiment (DOE) is greatly used in the optimization of products, formulations, and processes. This workshop will provide an overview of QbD through lectures and hands-on experience on DOE.  This workshop will help participants to understand the DOE process and trouble shoot possible errors encountered. In addition, the workshop will be a platform for interaction between academia and industry. 
     
    Objectives

    1. To highlight the significance of QbD in the product development cycle 

    1. To discover the optimization principles using DOE 

    1. To provide understanding of various DOE models 

    1. To provide networking and collaboration opportunities between academia and pharma industry
