Inhalation delivery remains the preferred pre-clinical choice as it provides fast route to the blood stream with minimal side effects. However, the research itself contains several challenges that turns many researchers away from this delivery method. Over the past couple of years, several features have been added to Buxco's nose-only inhalation system, improving on its flexibility and study optimization tools. In this webinar, UV Shemesh introduces those features, discusses their practical benefits and applications, and demonstrates how they can simplify inhalation research while gaining important insights and efficiency.
Presenters
UV Shemesh
UV Shemesh has 27 years of experience within the pre-clinical respiratory and inhalation space, starting his career off at Buxco Research Systems before joining DSI as chief engineer and now in a product management role. He has supported many researchers in their studies using the Buxco systems, and we are thrilled to have him share some of those experiences with us.
