PharmaForm has hired of several key scientists and invested in equipment for expansion plans in 2011. J. Blair West, Ph.D., has been appointed vice president of Pharmaceutical Operations. Dr. West has more than 20 years of experience as a senior executive and formulation scientist with expertise in several emerging formulation technology platforms, including hot melt extrusion and spray drying. Dr. West was previously employed at Bend Research and Azopharma. Feng Zhang, Ph.D. will be transitioning to senior formulation consultant.

PharmaForm has also expanded its Hot Melt Extrusion (HME) manufacturing capabilities and will be acquiring two new Leistritz Extruders, a ZSE -18 Twin Screw Extruder, as well as a ZSE – 27 Twin Screw Extruder for pilot scale and GMP commercial manufacturing.

“We are extremely pleased to add Blair to our scientific team,” said Gregory M. McKee, president and chief executive officer of PharmaForm. “We believe that Blair, along with our other hires and capital expansion plans will allow PharmaForm to grow significantly in 2011. We would also like to thank Dr. Feng Zhang for his years of dedicated service to the company and wish him great success in his future endeavors.”
