Development of Biopharmaceutical Drug-Device Products

Feroz Jameel is a group leader in Formulation and Process Development for New Biological Entities at AbbVie, in Lake County, IL, where he is involved in the formulation and process development, optimization, scale-up and transfer to manufacturing of biopharmaceutical products. Feroz received his Master's degree in Pharmaceutics from the University of Delhi and Ph.D in Pharmaceutics (Pharmaceutical Sciences) from the University of Connecticut. His publications include over 20 peer-reviewed manuscripts, over 20 presentations, and several book chapters. He is the co-editor of the books "Formulation and Process Development Strategies for Manufacturing of Biopharmaceuticals" and "Quality by Design for Biopharmaceutical Drug Product Development". He has held several leadership positions at the AAPS including chair of "Freezing and Drying Technologies" and led the industrial consortium for Lyo QbD. He is a recipient of 2 patents in lyophilization formulation and lyophiliztion process development. Feroz received several awards including the AAPS and PDA's Fred Simon's award for the best paper published in the PDA Journal of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology. He has also chaired several symposia on the development of biological products.
