Dr. Pratap Basim is currently working as a Supervisor of Formulation and Process Development, Product Development Services at Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cincinnati, OH, USA. He obtained his Ph.D. in Pharmaceutics from Long Island University at Brooklyn, NY, and has 5+ years of industrial experience working for small and large size pharmaceutical companies. He is a member of scientific societies including American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists, Compaction Simulation Forum, etc. He is a reviewer for International Journal of Pharmaceutics, Drug Development and Industrial Pharmacy, AAPS PharmSciTech, Biomolecules, 3 Biotech, etc. He has published many research papers and book chapters in internationally well-known peer reviewed journals. He is also serving in the editorial board of many renowned Journals.

After graduation I started to work at Medical University of Silesia, where I completed my PhD thesis on genetic polymorphisms in coronary artery disease. Selected risk factors for development of arterial ischemic stroke in children were also in the area of my scientific interests. Besides, I am also interested in diagnosis and treatment of other neurological disorders in children: schizencephaly, headache, epilepsy and cerebral palsy. Nine years ago, when I moved to the Department of Pharmaceutical Technology I started the research concerning the technology for the manufacturing and optimization of micro- and nanocarriers of active substances. In addition, I am involved in analyses of rheological parameters of semi-solid preparations.

Research Interest: developmental neurology, neuroscience, genetics, pharmaceutical technology, nanotechnology, biochemistry

Grants: I participated in a multi-center Polish scientific grant and in several academic grants. In 2017, I was a supervisor of a grant of Medical University of Silesia regarding the release of active substances from semi-solid bases.
