ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS & TISSUE MODELS
Marc Brown, Jo Muddle and Professor Clive Page describe the use of artificial neural networks and novel tissue models as methods for formulation candidate screening, selection and characterisation and, in generic product development, for bioequivalence testing.

SCALE-UP & QBD APPROACHES FOR SPRAY-DRIED INHALATION FORMULATIONS
Eunice Costa, Filipe Neves, Gonçalo Andrade and Conrad Winters describe the strong position of inhalable products in preclinical and clinical pipelines and make the case for formulation-based approaches to enable and enhance pulmonary product development. Spray-drying technology in particular is highlighted as a highly favourable, scalable manufacturing technique for inhalable composite particles.
