This graduate course explores the foundational and advanced principles of pharmaceutical formulations, including powders, solutions, colloids, suspensions, and emulsions. Emphasis is placed on the design and application of nanoparticles for drug delivery, imaging, and medical devices. Students will examine key formulation strategies, nanoparticle preparation methods, routes of administration, cellular targeting, and safety considerations. The course also introduces tools for experimental design, optimization techniques, and evaluation parameters. Instruction is delivered through lectures, assigned readings, and interactive discussions. Restriction: Permission of the instructor is required.
