Predictive Lung Deposition Models for Safety and Efficacy of Orally Inhaled Drug Products Program.

by:

The United States Food and Drug Administration, otherwise referred to as the USFDA, an agency operating within the United States Department of Health and Human Services that is generally responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the regulation and supervision of food safety, tobacco products, dietary supplements, prescription and over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs, vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, blood transfusions, medical devices, electromagnetic radiation emitting devices, veterinary products, and cosmetics.

The USFA has recently formed a collaboration with the National Institutes of Health to establish the Predictive Lung Deposition Models for Safety and Efficacy of Orally Inhaled Drug Products Program.

The primary goal of the program is to develop computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of orally inhaled drug products that can account for drug product characteristics and physiological parameters on total and regional deposition in the lungs.

This is all in conjunction with the USFDA's objective of developing a CFD model that will be capable of of predicting highly localized deposition of pharmaceutically relevant polydisperse aerosols from metered dose inhalers (MDIs) and dry powder inhalers (DPIs).

In addition, the results that will be derived from this study will then be utilized to create a linked CFD-compartment model that can predict the effects of lung deposition on safety (systemic exposure) and efficacy (local delivery) for locally acting orally inhaled drugs.   (continued...)

The National Institutes of Health has partnered with the National Cancer Institute(NCI) in an effort to establish the Basic Cancer Research in Cancer Health Disparities Grant Program wherein both agencies seek to solicit applications from eligible investigators and researchers who are interested in conducting basic, mechanistic research concentrating on the biologic/genetic causes of cancer health disparities.


Government Grants Within The United States Transportation Sector
Getting from point A to point B could be both the simplest and most complex issues to ever grace the existence of mankind. Though for the any government, especially the United States government which takes pride in the constantly ensuring the safety and welfare of its people, the issue of transportation is an entirely different story.


Water Resources Research National Competitive Grants Program
The United States Geological Survey has recently constituted the Water Resources Research National Competitive Grants Program wherein they intend to focus on water problems and issues of a regional or interstate nature beyond those that only concern a single state.


Community Development Credit Unions
A Community Development Credit Union, more commonly known as a CDCU, is a credit financial institution which owned and controlled by its members in an effort to sustain the ability of being able to provide a wide array of financial services.





In the world of social enterprises, failure is a cringe-worthy moment nobody wants to talk about. But, social entrepreneurs can benefit from their failures.
