(project summary)

RCG-007-04:  Pharmaceutical Manufacturing  (11-1-04 to 12-31-05)

Drs. Michael Jay and Eric Grulke from the University of Kentucky have teamed together to pursue the development of a center that will improve the manufacturing process of pharmaceuticals. Through the use of sensors to create localized control of various steps of the process, the institute’s success will serve to lower drug costs and increase the ability to vary the final product. An interdepartmental effort will be employed for this project combining faculty from pharmaceutical sciences, chemistry, chemical engineering and electrical engineering, as well as UK’s Center for Pharmaceutical Science & Technology, Analytical Spectroscopy Research Group, Center for Computational Sciences, Mass Spectrometry Facility, Center for Manufacturing, and Center for Visualization and Virtual Environments. The team was awarded $20,000 for the project. (project summary)
