The chair at Virginia Commonwealth University\u2019s Department of Chemical and Life Science Engineering will deliver the Dreyfus Lecture, sponsored by Kalamazoo College\u2019s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry<\/a>, this Thursday.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B. Frank Gupton\u2014whose research group is focused on the development of continuous processing technology to facilitate the discovery, development and commercialization of drug products\u2014will discuss public access to essential medicines in a post-pandemic environment. He is the founder of VCU\u2019s Medicines for All institute<\/a>, which focuses on improving global access to lifesaving medicines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before joining VCU, Gupton\u2019s 30-year industrial career centered on the development and commercialization of chemical processes for pharmaceutical applications. That time included years he served as the executive director of North American process development for Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, where he led the commercialization of the HIV drug nevirapine. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
