3D printing - Innovative preparation of medicines

Identifier	002UVLF-4/2024
Funding scheme	Cultural and educational grant agency (Ministry of education, science, research and sport of the Slovak Republic)
Principal investigator at UVLF	Wolaschka Tomáš, PharmDr., PhD.
Project duration	01.01.2024 – 31.12.2026

3D printing finds application in various industries due to its variability, individualization of production, quick adaptation to current requirements, and relatively low cost. Solid dosage forms are currently limited to hard gelatin capsules and suppositories in pharmaceutical preparation. However, because of its attributes, 3D printing can expand the spectrum of individually prepared dosage forms and thereby improve patient care. The main goal of the project is to bring the latest methods and procedures of pharmaceutical technology into the teaching process based on new knowledge. Other goals of the project are the revitalization of the laboratory of solid dosage forms, the introduction of other modern methodologies, and the development of comprehensive study material in the form of university textbook and e-learning on the Moodle platform. The project will be implemented at the Department of Pharmaceutical Technology, Pharmacognosy and Botany of the University of Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy in Košice. Due to its character, it will contribute in a very significant way to the innovation of the teaching of not only two profile subjects, the mandatory Dosage Forms and Galenics and the state-level Pharmaceutical Technology, but also other subjects taught as part of the pharmacy study program.
