79f Drug Design, Development and Delivery: Integrated, Interdisciplinary Education in Pharmaceutical Science

Mark R. Prausnitz, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, 311 Ferst Drive, Atlanta, GA 30332-0100 and Andreas S. Bommarius, Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering, Georgia Tech, 315 Ferst Dr, Atlanta, GA 30332-0363.

I will start the presentation with personal remarks and observations about John Prausnitz' approach to science, people and education. The rest of the talk will describe a new course and related educational activities at Georgia Tech to promote pharmaceutical education of chemical engineers. Where appropriate, parallels will be drawn between this program and lessons learned from my father.
