The Consortium for the Advancement of Manufacturing of Pharmaceuticals
(CAMP)
This is a large non-profit consortium of six brand name pharmaceutical
companies that conducts research on projects focused on pharmaceutical
manufacturing process technology. Its mission is to help reduce
time-to-patient and the cost of pharmaceutical products.
Center
for Pharmaceutical Processing Research (CPPR)
This center is the only NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research
Center (out of 50) at a pharmacy school. The participating universities
are Purdue, the University of Connecticut, the University of Puerto
Rico, and the University of Minnesota. The mission of CPPR is
to foster an interdisciplinary approach to pharmaceutical processing-related
research, to catalyze interaction between industrial and academic
scientists, and to make the application of a basic science approach
to formulation and manufacture of drug products an integral part
of graduate pharmaceutical education.
Computer
Integrated Process Operations Center (CIPAC)
A decade-long industry-funded consortium that has pioneered model-based
integrated approaches to improve control, scheduling, planning,
portfolio optimization and safety analysis for pharmaceutical
processes. CIPAC is an industry-university research consortium
involving the Purdue University School of Chemical Engineering
and 12 member companies.
Laboratory
for Extended Enterprises at Purdue (LEEAP)
An NSF and industry-funded consortium for research in supply chain
management issues in pharmaceutical and other industries.
Particle Technology and Crystallization Consortium (PTCC)
PTTC is devoted to the development of fundamental knowledge, methods
and strategies in the areas of nucleation, crystallization, particle
technology and characterization for faster development of new
pharmaceutical compounds
Software
Engineering Research Center (SERC)
An NSF/IUC multi-university entity, headquartered at Ball State,
with a mission to conduct research to improve the design, implementation,
and maintenance of large-scale software systems. ERC focuses on
the definition, fundamental understanding, and validation of the
underlying technologies needed to realize a well-defined class
of engineered systems with the potential to spawn whole new industries
or radically transform the product lines, processing technologies,
or service delivery methodologies of current industries.
