The Natoli Institute for Industrial Pharmaceutical Research and Development presents its inaugural tableting course, The Tablet Manufacturing Process, which takes place on 16–19 August 2015. This course offers a comprehensive, hands-on experience with the tablet manufacturing process from formulation development to tablet design to tablet compression – all presented in a state-of-the-art lab at the Arnold and Marie Schwartz College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences on the Brooklyn campus of Long Island University.

Academic and industrial experts will cover powder preparation techniques and the science behind best practices that will help participants overcome a wide array of tableting challenges. Key areas of concentration include understanding powder characterisation and its effect on tablet compression, excipient selection, formulation development, hot-melt extrusion, and the science of tablet press operation.

Participants will receive 21.5 hours of ACPE Pharmacist Accreditation upon course completion.

The Natoli Institute provides resources to the tableting industry, including new product manufacturing studies, tablet tooling sticking and picking evaluations, and new formulation technologies. Not only does the facility provide an environment for students to learn industrial pharmacy unit operations for solid oral dosage forms, it also provides an opportunity for Natoli customers to have their tableting problems investigated.
