Science chairman announced for BPC 2007
Clive Wilson: focus on imaging in formulation research |
The science chairman for the 2007 British
Pharmaceutical Conference is to be Clive Wilson, professor of pharmaceutics at the University of Strathclyde.
Professor Wilson is a member of the editorial board of the European
Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics and editor of the Taylor & Francis
series in pharmaceutical technology. Currently, he is on a sabbatical
research period.
His research has focused on the use of imaging techniques in formulation
research and he has received the Amersham and Pfizer awards in recognition
of his work. His
main areas of research are the relationship between gastrointestinal
physiology and drug absorption and the problems of ocular drug delivery.
He has supervised more than 40 PhD students and has authored over 400
publications that include original articles, reviews and six books. The
publications reflect his interest
in imaging, physics, drug absorption and metabolism and pharmacokinetics.
The 2007 BPC will take place at Manchester International Convention Centre
from 10 to 12 September 2007. The 2006 conference will be held at the
same venue from 4 to 6 September 2006, with David Thurston, professor
of anticancer drug design at the School of Pharmacy, University of London,
as science chairman.
