Post Graduate Research Training

ICSB is a premier event hosted by NCNPR that brings together top researchers, industry leaders, and regulatory experts to advance the science of natural products research and development. Since its inception in 2001, ICSB has been a platform for sharing cutting-edge research, discussing the latest discoveries, and fostering collaborations that shape the future of botanical science. Focusing on everything from plant authentication and cultivation to drug discovery and safety, ICSB is key in driving progress across the natural products field.

The Hands-on Course in Tablet Technology is a postgraduate educational program offered by the Pii Center for Pharmaceutical Technology. It provides an extensive review of conventional and advanced manufacturing technologies, including hot-melt extrusion, used to develop various novel delivery and continuous manufacturing systems. The course, initiated in 1998, has trained over 2,000 attendees.

This meeting is dedicated to bringing together researchers from diverse disciplines across the Mid-South region and beyond to discuss issues in glycoscience, foster collaborations, and learn new techniques and technologies. Featuring research highlights from regional researchers, distinguished external speakers, and experts in the field, the event is designed to be an accessible venue for researchers and trainees to share their work, network, and foster collaborations.

We offer specialized training programs through the Natural Products Training Laboratory to advance knowledge and skills in natural products research and quality control. These programs are designed for professionals in the dietary supplement, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries, as well as regulatory agencies. The NPTL provides both foundational and advanced courses, focusing on areas such as botanical authentication, analytical techniques, and quality assurance.
