David P.Elder(Research Area)
Dr. Elder has a long-standing interest in impurities and degradation chemistry. He has played a leading role in the identification, analysis and control of mutagenic impurities. He has been part of EfPIA and PhRMA sub-groups on mutagenic impurities and the PQRA group that investigated the formation and control strategies for alkyl sulfonate impurities. He is interested in the role that excipients play in stabilizing/destabilizing molecules and the impact that changes in excipient material attributes can have on processability of drug products. He is interested in biopharmaceutics and its role in devising formulation strategies, as well as the more classical role that biopharmaceutics plays in biowaivers, bioavailability and bioequivalence studies. He is interested in clinically relevant specifications and whether dissolution tests (and related specifications) can ever really be robust enough to be used in a QC environment and sensitive enough to be truly predictive of clinical outcomes.

Anthony Cavazos
Medical Director
Madison Medical & Sports Rehabilitation Center
USA
Anthony Cavazos(Biography)
Dr. Cavazos, or as his patients address him, has been practicing medicine for over 30 years. He graduated with honors from the University of Michigan Medical School and completed a family medicine residency outside Pittsburgh, PA. After residency he practiced Emergency Medicine in Ohio for nearly 10 years. Despite the hustle and bustle of the ER pace, his patients were always treated with respect and compassion. Dr then moved to New Jersey & worked in various urgent care settings. But he was frustrated with the state of patient care as it only focused on symptom control; not the core issue. He then began studying vitamins, hormones, integrative and regenerative medicine. Dr opened his own practice, DrC360, nearly four years ago and is only looking forward to growth and excitement!
