Biography
Anne Marie Healy is Professor of Pharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical Technology at Trinity College Dublin with over 30 years of experience in pharmaceutical sciences research and education. Her research programme focuses on the physicochemical and solid-state properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients, and on how these properties are influenced by formulation and processing strategies. This work has led to the development of innovative solid dosage forms for oral and pulmonary delivery and has improved our understanding of drug solubility and bioavailability enhancement. Her research is currently focused on two principal areas: pharmaceutical material science and particle engineering for inhalation drug delivery. She has published extensively, with over 70% of her publications in the last decade involving international co-authors. Her work has been supported by multiple national and international funding agencies, including the NIH. Prof. Healy has a longstanding record of interdisciplinary collaboration and leadership in major research consortia, including serving as Co-Principal Investigator and Theme Leader for the Research Ireland Centre for Pharmaceuticals (SSPC), and as co-lead of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC)-Research Ireland (RI) Centre for Doctoral Training in Transformative Pharmaceutical Technologies. Prof. Healy has supervised 26 PhD students to completion and mentored nearly 30 postdoctoral researchers, many of whom have progressed to successful careers in academia and industry. She is committed to advancing pharmaceutical science through collaborative, translational research and to training the next generation of scientists through inclusive, multidisciplinary programmes.

Research Expertise
My research programme is focused on obtaining an increased understanding of the physicochemical properties of active and excipient materials used in a variety of different dosage forms, and on using that knowledge to improve product design in terms of in vitro and subsequently in vivo performance. My current research spans two principal strands: (i) Pharmaceutical material science (ii) Particle engineering for pulmonary drug delivery (i) Pharmaceutical material science My research in this area is aimed at understanding how solid state and micromeritic characteristics of drug and excipient materials are impacted by pharmaceutical processing, and how formulation and/or processing may be optimised so as to control physicochemical characteristics and drug product performance, particularly for oral solid dosage forms. I have worked collaboratively, with international researchers and with industrialists, and have published and presented extensively on my research. Current research efforts focus on co-processed Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, including amorphous solid dispersions, deep eutectic solvents and ionic liquids. In collaboration with Assoc. Prof. Steven Ferguson (UCD, SSPC), we have combined formulation and engineering expertise to advance co-processed APIs, resulting in multiple co-authored publications and two patent applications on spray-encapsulated ionic liquids. (ii) Particle engineering for pulmonary drug delivery My group has internationally recognised expertise in spray-drying"based formulation and particle engineering for dry powder inhalation. This expertise led to my involvement in an NIH-funded €8 million international project (2016"2021) led by UCSF, developing a novel mucolytic therapy for lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis and asthma. The project resulted in a UCSF spinout, Aer Therapeutics, of which I am academic co-founder. The company's focus and to develop mucolytic agents as commercial drug products for patients in need. Recent collaborations with experts in chemistry, microbiology, and pharmaceutics, including the SSPC community and the University of Pisa, focus on developing inhalable antifungal agents for pulmonary delivery.

TitleIonic Liquids as Enabling Formulations for Poorly Bioavailable DrugsSummaryIn this project the possibilities offered by API-ILs and their multi-component solutions in augmenting the performance of drugs with limited bioavailability were explored. Simultaneously, a robust platform for the effective manufacturing of API-ILs as solid dosage forms was developed. The process involved the utilization of spray encapsulation with diverse polymers to solidify the API-ILs.
