PEARRL research
|
Mariana will develop a biorelevant dissolution methodology for paediatric populations. In addition, she will develop paediatric absorption model, integrated into a PBPK model, which adjusts for physiological differences as a function of age. Based on comparison with in vivo data, she will further evaluate the in vitro and in silico models.
