Description

Advances in nanotechnology have found applications in the pharmaceutical industry, positively impacting patients and society in general. To further enhance the growth and innovation capacity of nanotechnology, testing and manufacturing facilities must be improved. The EU-funded Phoenix project aims to facilitate the translation of nanopharmaceuticals from bench to bedside through the establishment of an open innovation test bed (OITB) that complies with regulatory and good manufacturing practice guidelines. Phoenix-OITB will consist of a network of facilities, technologies, services and technology transfer expertise to expedite the production and commercialisation of nanopharmaceuticals.
