Dr. Afzal Hussain

Dr. Hussain is internationally recognized for his expertise in Hansen Solubility Parameters (HSPiP), computational and thermodynamic models for solubility studies (including Van’t Hoff and Apelblat models) of poorly soluble drugs, QbD-enabled optimization for identifying critical material and process variables, and the development of environmentally sustainable processes and analytical methods. In pharmaceutics, nanomedicine has been extensively explored as a drug delivery system, serving as an alternative therapeutic carrier with well-informed patient outcomes through a technology transfer approach from laboratory research to clinical application. A deeper understanding of GastroPlus-based simulations enables accurate prediction and correlation of in vitro and in vivo data in appropriate animal models and humans, enhancing insights into pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (IVIVC).
He has authored approximately 150 publications, including 18 book chapters and more than four copyrights registered with the Indian government.
