Drug Delivery System Excellence Center of Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Prince of Songkla University was established in 2007. Nowadays, research in drug delivery fields is actively carried out in Thailand. The search for a lead compound is a very difficult task therefore drug delivery will be the focal point of Thai researchers. As we work together we hope that we can stimulate and generate a stimulating atmosphere and activities. Also, the expansion of graduate studies generates opportunities to keep pace with advances in technology.

     The center currently has over 20 academic staff members. Further expansion of the center is expected to continue for the near future. We also welcome other disciplines and members of staff from other universities nationally or internationally. With these members, the center maintains a rigorous research environment with activities spanning both conventional and new emerging areas of research in drug delivery.

     Multidisciplinary research is fostered and in particular, the unique combination of different delivery systems promotes synergy and offers new initiatives in research. Our research efforts have resulted in several publications in leading journals of pharmaceutical sciences over the last five years. The center will maintain robust ties with the industries and oversea institutes through collaborative research as well as students exchange program. The research areas under Drug Delivery System Excellence Center are as follow.
