Full Title: High-Resolution Characterization of Structure, Interaction, and Miscibility of Drug Products The local interactions between a drug and its surrounding environment is critical in both small and large molecule formulations. For small molecules, the drug-polymer interaction is needed to ensure that the drug does not crystallize in an amorphous solid dispersion. For proteins, phase separation in lyophilized formulations will lead to reduced stability and the potential for aggregation. In this presentation, the ability to probe these local structures and interactions in both small and large molecule systems will be shown. Case studies will be presented that demonstrate how structural properties (e.g. degrees of interaction, changes in conformation) can impact functional properties such as crystallization and aggregation. Eric Munson of Purdue University Eric Munson, Ph.D., is currently Professor and Head of the Department of Industrial and Physical Pharmacy at Purdue University. He received his B.A. degree from Augustana College in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, in 1987. After studying one year in Munich, Germany, on a Fulbright Fellowship, he received his Ph.D. in 1993 from Texas A&M University, and was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, Berkeley in 1994. He was in the Chemistry Department at the University of Minnesota before moving in 2001 to the Pharmaceutical Chemistry Department at the University of Kansas, to the Pharmaceutical Sciences Department at the University of Kentucky in 2010, where he was the Patrick DeLuca Endowed Professor in Pharmaceutical Technology. In 2018 he moved to Purdue University to become Professor and Head of the department. His research program is focused on the characterization of pharmaceutical solids using a variety of analytical techniques, with an emphasis on solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Dr. Munson is a coinventor on three patents and has published more than 100 research, review, and book chapters.
