FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The third and final track of Pharma EXPO Conference Program will tackle pharmaceutical packaging challenges. Co-located with PACK EXPO Las Vegas (Sept. 28–30, 2015; Las Vegas Convention Center), Pharma EXPO is produced in partnership by PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing, and the International Society of Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE). ISPE organizes the Pharma EXPO Conference.
The pharmaceutical packaging track will address topics like integrity testing and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) exposure. Kenneth Waterman, Ph.D., will present its spotlight session, a discussion of advanced stability modeling for package development and how it can speed time to market as a more-efficient alternative to trial-and-error.
“Packaging is as important a consideration for pharmaceutical products as for any other product, and the pharmaceutical packaging track will keep attendees current with the technological trends, regulatory developments and best practices impacting their packaging lines,” says Charles D. Yuska, president and CEO, PMMI.
