Chemistry to Medicine

Chemistry to Medicine

We invite you to register for our first in-person CAGIS BC event since the COVID-19 pandemic. We are excited to welcome each of you back to in-person events while we maintain best practices for minimizing transmission risks. 

Please join us for a fun event centered around drug formulation and production. Have you ever wondered how different types of medicine travel through our bodies? How do scientists formulate and test different mixes? How medicines are made at a microscopic or nanoparticle scale? 

Join us for our next CAGIS BC event where scientists will share their own experiences in making an idea turn into a physical product. You will have a chance to tour a working laboratory, mix basic elements, simulate an extrusion, and mimic a filling process.

Learning objectives: 

During this session, you will ...  

·         engage in discussions around formulation and manufacturing of medicines and drug products 

·         use laboratory equipment such as pipettes, microscopes, and personal protective equipment
