Experimental model in Biopharmaceutics

Experimental model in Biopharmaceutics (2 CFU)
Prof Giuseppina Sandri
When: may-july
The course aims to provide advanced skills on the experimental models used for the preclinical characterization of systems of pharmaceutical interest and in particular nanoparticulate systems.
Particular attention will be devoted to the treatment of in vitro cellular models, including 3D models, highlighting the peculiarities of the different physiological districts (gastrointestinal, skin, ocular, buccal / gingival, vaginal, nasal / pulmonary, blood brain barrier). Cytotoxicity / biocompatibility, cell proliferation and immune response tests will be discussed in detail.
The theoretical discussion of the topics will be developed by the presentation of case studies.
Learning assessment: oral exam
