Graduate Research Assistant
University of Georgia
I am Adaeze Osakwe, and I seek to advance sustainable practices in pharmaceutical, polymer, and chemical manufacturing. Further to my Bachelor of science degree in chemistry, I am currently pursuing a doctorate in chemistry, and a graduate certificate in sustainability at the University of Georgia. My research is focused on developing a system that predicts miscibility between active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and excipients through the use of solubility parameters to create stable high drug-loading formumualtions with tunable release profiles, while conserving resources and minimizing waste during drug delivery design process. I am conversant with using analytical processes for the development and characterization of solid and semi-solid dosage forms. Through my research, I have collaborated with a Fortune 500 company to develop drug products, published my research in leading academic journals, and contributed to multiple interdisciplinary research initiatives.
