The Gesellschaft für Dermopharmazie extends its offer of events by a further event form: starting fall of this year besides annual meetings, symposia and workshops also seminars concerning special subjects are offered accompanied by practical exercises. The first seminar of this kind deals with modern analytical methods for the development, quality assurance and stability tests of dermatics and cosmetics. The seminar takes place on 16 and 17 October at the Institut für Pharmazeutische Technologie (Institute for Pharmaceutical Technology) of the Technical University Brunswick. The scientific organization is with professor Dr. Rolf Daniels, the head of the GD department Dermocosmetics.
In the frame of development, quality assurance and stability testing of prescriptions for dermal applications, a series of modern analytical methods can be applied today to obtain information about the structure of such preparations. In particular the registration of changes caused by prescription modifications or the production process as well as the early recognition of instabilities represent a major challenge.
 The GD organizes its first practice seminar at the Institut für Pharmazeutische Technologie (Institute for Pharmaceutical Technology) at the Brunswick University on 16 and 17 October 2002.
