Controlled-release products remain amongst the largest sectors for innovation, with worldwide revenues of US$29.5bn by 2017, as products mature and face patent expiration. Advances in formulation, nanotechnology, and materials science are improving bioavailabilty and the impact of drugs across the therapeutic spectrum.
SMi proudly presents its 9th annual Controlled-Release conference to be held in London on Wednesday 28th & Thursday 29th of March 2012. This conference continues SMi’s previous highly successful Controlled-Release events and offers the opportunity to keep up-to-date with the latest regulations, challenges and solutions that you need to know about for successful and cost-effective drug delivery.
New for 2012, the conference focuses solely on oral, dermal and parenteral delivery routes, showcasing the latest developments in these exciting areas.
