With the cost of drug development escalating, biopharma must explore new approaches to increase productivity and return on investment.
Over the past decade, significant advancements have been made in the speed and performance of computational modeling methods for rapid drug-screening. In a recent article in Drug Development and Delivery titled "Formulation Development: An Innovative, Simulation-Based Approach" learn how Patheon's pioneering of this new approach is leading to:

- rapid identification of candidate excipients for
drugs
- prediction of key experimental properties of
formulations
- determination of drug loading and formulation
stability
