Biography
Parenteral formulation development expertise and microbiology
I was the recognised expert for the development of parenteral products with GSK UK. Also, I was the named holder of the GSK manufacturing licence as the Sterile Product licence holder on the GSK Harlow manufacturing licence until early 2009.
I have substantial experience of developing many different types of parenterals including aqueous-solutions, non- aqueous solutions, lyophiles, and syringe prefills. My work has encompassed initial development activities, scale up and technical transfer into the factory network. Validation and microbial assessment of the manufacturing process, risk assessments and clinical trial designs. I have extensive experience of design and qualification of a sterile development/production unit including environmental controls and contamination controls.
I am an active member of Parenteral Drug Assoc. (USA) and the Parenteral Society (UK) and was an organising committee member for the Royal Pharmaceutical Society Arden House Parenteral Conference 2007.
I previously held the position of Honorary Lecturer of Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the University of Greenwich. Here I lectured on parenteral product development as part of the BSc (Hons) Pharmaceutical Chemistry course until the course was discontinued in c2004. Previously I was a visiting lecturer on parenteral development at the University of Kent. I lectured on microbial spoilage, contamination control and sterility as well as development of parenteral products and aseptic techniques.
Radiation expertise
I held the position of Senior Radiation Protection Supervisor (RPS) within Pharmaceutical Development, GSK (and the heritage companies SKF and SB) 1989-2009. I was responsible for and organised all ADME studies conducted worldwide and all other radiation matters within the department. I represented Pharmaceutical Development on the GSK Human Radiolabel Forum. In this role I developed targeted formulations based upon pre-clinical data to ensure correct radiation exposure whilst for clinical products I calculated radiation exposures for humans based upon clinical and safety data. I trained numerous people in ADME development and planning, formulation targeting and interpretation of clinical and non-clinical data to ensure safe and effective trials.
