About the journal

Journal of Pharmaceutical & Biomedical Sciences

A peer-reviewed scientific journal focused on pharmaceutical formulation, drug delivery, pharmaceutical technology and biopharmaceutics, with particular emphasis on how these areas affect biological and therapeutic performance.

The journal seeks research that goes beyond characterisation of a formulation and shows how pharmaceutical design influences drug stability, solubility, dissolution, permeability, bioavailability, targeting, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, safety or other clinically relevant properties.
