Skin and Formulation, 6th Symposium

Skin and Formulation, 6th Symposium is organized by International Society for Drug Delivery Sciences and Technology / Association de Pharmacie Galenique Industrielle (APGI) and will be held from Oct 02 - 03, 2023 at Nantes Congress Center, Nantes, Pays De La Loire, France.

Current Challenges in Skin Formulation

Description:
The 6th Symposium program will treat advances in topical formulations for improved skin delivery and will focus on solutions to today’s economic, social, and environmental challenges.

The program includes the following main topics:

• Skin pathologies and product needs: Skin diseases and their complications are a significant burden worldwide, both in terms of acute and chronic morbidities and their related expenditures for care. Orphan skin pathologies or neglected tropical diseases of the skin require the development of new products which will be discussed during this symposium.
• Preservation: The drastic limitation of permitted preservatives over the years imposes to develop innovative strategies in terms of formulation, administration devices, and/or packaging. One goal of the congress is to share solutions to this critical problem.
• New directions in skin formulation: The formulation of skin products is a constantly evolving field, particularly in response to regulatory changes. Besides the conventional aspects of the stability of efficient delivery of active ingredients, controversial substances, microplastics or volatile compounds significantly change the formulation habits and the evaluation methods. This will be the common thread of the “Skin and Formulation 6th Symposium”.

• There will be a mixture of plenary invited lectures and short communications selected from the abstracts received from young researchers in order to have more than 25 podium presentations.
• Suppliers will again be invited to display their latest technologies.
• Several sponsoring opportunities.

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
