The Department of Pharmaceutics, Vivekanand Education Society’s College of Pharmacy (Autonomous), under the aegis of the IQAC, successfully organized the 10th Annual Lecture Series – Special International Edition on “Objective Versus Purposeful Dissolution Testing: A Paradigm Shift” on Friday, August 7, 2026. The distinguished lecture was delivered by Prof. Umesh Banakar, President, Banakar Consulting Services, USA, an internationally recognized expert in pharmaceutical sciences and dissolution testing.

Prof. Banakar is the author of the acclaimed reference book, Pharmaceutical Dissolution Testing, Bioavailability, and Bioequivalence: Science, Applications, and Beyond, published by John Wiley & Sons. The 560-page comprehensive reference explores the established and emerging roles of dissolution testing in pharmaceutical drug development, along with bioavailability, bioequivalence, solubility, dissolution, permeability, mathematical models, biorelevant dissolution testing, IVIVC, and regulatory expectations.

During the session, Prof. Banakar emphasized the need to move beyond viewing dissolution testing merely as a routine regulatory exercise and adopt a purpose-driven and scientifically meaningful approach. He highlighted how purposeful dissolution testing can contribute to formulation development, product understanding, quality assurance, and informed regulatory decision-making.

The session conducted in hybrid mode was attended by B.Pharm, M.Pharm and Ph.D. students, Faculty Members, and Industry Professionals, providing a valuable platform for academic interaction and knowledge exchange.
The programme was conducted under the able leadership of Dr. Supriya Shidhaye, Principal, VESCOP, and coordinated by Dr. Rajashree Hirlekar, Head, Department of Pharmaceutics, with the dedicated support of the faculty members and M.Pharm students of the Department of Pharmaceutics.
