Scientific Focus of the Program

We focus on pharmaceutical research from discovery of new solid forms of active pharmaceutical ingredients to development of drug products. Specifically, we are active in the areas of solid state chemistry and processes, preformulation and solid state analysis, drug product design and processes, biopharmacy and preclinical in-vivo testing.

Our Philosophy and Goals

At The Parc we want to build an environment for creative and talented students who will be able to solve current and future challenges of pharmaceutical research. Master and doctoral students at The Parc base their research on real industrial needs and work under joined supervision of academic leaders and industrial scientists. Students gain theoretical knowledge and practical skills for their future professional career in both academic and industrial pharmaceutical research and development.

Our Partners

The main industrial partner of the program is Zentiva, generic pharmaceutical company based in Prague, Czech Republic. Academic partners include University of Chemistry and Technology Prague, Faculty of Science of Charles University and Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague, Czech Republic.
