Data in Biotech Mastering solubility and stability in drug development with Serán BioScience
In this episode of Data in Biotech, Ross Katz chats with Wesley Tatum, Principal Engineer at Serán BioScience, about the intricacies of formulating low-solubility drug products. They explore the science behind amorphous solid dispersions, how data informs formulation choices, and why balancing performance, manufacturability, and stability is critical in modern drug development.
What you'll learn in this episode:
>> How amorphous solid dispersions improve solubility and stability in drug products
>> Why formulation decisions hinge on early data collection and modeling
>> The role of data infrastructure in formulation R&D and knowledge transfer
>> How Serán BioScience collaborates closely with clients to solve complex drug development challenges
>> Where AI and automation are (and aren’t yet) transforming pharmaceutical formulation
