The multi-faceted agreement will also provide internships for pharmacy students and volunteer teaching by CoreRx scientists, said Dr. Todd R. Daviau, CEO of CoreRx. “We’re thrilled to offer this affiliation with USF and to offer a hands-on learning opportunity for its pharmacy students. We are excited about the fact that CoreRx will continue to play a role in furthering the development of pharmacy students.”

Among the key concepts first-year pharmacy students will learn through CoreRx will be the early development stages of pharmaceuticals, how dosage forms (oral liquids and suspensions or tablets and capsules) are made (with hands-on instruction), and the functionality of additional ingredients found in modern-day drugs. Additionally, students will learn hands on the processes utilized in the manufacture of a wide range of pharmaceutical dosage forms.

“CoreRx has an established history of adopting innovative technology in response to client needs and quickly building industry-leading expertise,” stated Brian R. McMillan, CoreRx VP of Formulation Development.  "CoreRx is proud of our willingness to implement the latest equipment for the benefit of the students. Our commitment to innovation, decades of drug development experience and state-of-the-art equipment will further add to the students knowledgebase through this affiliation.”
