A comprehensive course in the stability testing of pharmaceuticals and related products will take place at the Moller Centre, Cambridge, from 18-20 February 2008.

Stability testing of pharmaceuticals, a three-day residential course, organised by the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain in partnership with the Academy of Pharmaceutical Sciences, is designed for both experienced colleagues and those new to stability testing.

The course is based on a blend of current and informative presentations combined with interactive workshops; a format which allows discussion of real challenges encountered in everyday practice, and encourages participative problem-solving with course tutors. Workshop sessions will use practical examples to illustrate essential steps in the development of stability testing protocols. The social programme is also designed to maximise networking opportunities and informal discussion between delegates and the team of course experts.

Course Leader Kevin Ryan, Associate Research Fellow, said: "This is a thoroughly updated and comprehensive course, covering both traditional and biotech products and devices. The course is designed for a limited number of delegates in order to maximise access to expert presenters and enhance the learning environment. Participants have the opportunity to provide genuine working examples to discuss during the three days.

This gives a unique opportunity for delegates to not only learn new problem-solving methods, but to also benefit from practical advice and experience which can be applied directly to their working environment."
