The dissertation of Alexandra Braun was awarded excellent by the Lower Franconian “Gedenkjahrstiftung” for Science and the University of Würzburg.

Slamming this topic, Tobias Miesler participated at the 2nd Science Slam at the 7th Annual Meeting of the House of Pharma in Frankfurt. After public voting by the audience, he was rewarded with the 3rd place, including 1000 € prize money. Congratulations!

Johannes Wiest published an article in ‘Molecular Pharmaceutics’ entitled “Geometrical and structural dynamics of Imatinib within biorelevant colloids." The article details the solubilization of Imatinib in simulated gastrointestinal fluids at the molecular levels. The article provides a blueprint for further studies aiming at improving bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs by effectively deploying the natural micelle dynamics while maximizing bioavailability.

Congratulations to Johannes & team!

The 6th Galenusworkshop was organized from the 6th to 7th of November in the beautiful Neubaukirche in Würzburg. With more than 70 participants, the meeting intended to foster and truly sparked the education of young scientists with 15 lectures in the field of bioresponsive drug delivery systems.

Congratulations to Marcus Gutmann! As of October 25, 2018 Marcus defended his thesis in a vibrant and vivid spirit and exemplified excellence on all fronts! Congratulations again, Marcus!

Congratulations to Alexandra! She defended her thesis entitled “Bioresponsive delivery of anticatabolic and anabolic agents for muscle regeneration using bioinspired strategies” demonstrating strong background knowledge and in depth excellence regarding her research work and adjacent research fields!

Congratulations to Christoph who published another article on CO efficacy together with our partners in Ghent!

Maude Reggane published an article in the European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics entitled "Bioinspired co-crystals of Imatinib providing enhanced kinetic solubility". It is an excellent contribution starting off a bioinspired strategy to improve the pharmaceutical properties of Imatinib. Congratulations to Maude & team!

Congratulations to Cecilia Amstalden! As of June 25, 2018 she successfully defended her thesis entitled „Development of a bacterial responsive antibiotic release system“.

As of May 18, 2018 Nina Schüßler completed her PhD with the defense of her thesis entitled „Novel formulation principles for bioavailability enhancement of poorly water-soluble and poorly permeable drugs “. Congratulations!!!

For the second year in a row, the company Dr. Pfleger Pharmaceuticals offered pharmacy students from Würzburg the opportunity to visit their production site in Bamberg.

As part of a student’s day under the motto "Experience practice – meet people working in the pharmaceutical industry", the students were invited to take a closer look to state-of-the-art pharma production in Bamberg.

Congratulations to Eva for successfully defending her PhD thesis!

From April 10th - 13th 2018 delegations from the Universities of Soochow and Zhejiang (China) visited us.

Our University, and in particular the Chair for Drug Formulation and Delivery, has been conducting joint research projects with them for several years.
