Sunscreens: Science, Technology and Product Development

 
  January 17, 2018  
     
 
CfPA-The Center for Professional Advancement, Online Live
March 7-8, 2018 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. (ET)


Who Should Attend?
This course is designed for professionals in the personal care, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries who are engaged in sunscreen product development, including those in:

  • Research & Development
  • Technology
  • Marketing & Technical Sales
  • Regulatory Affairs
  • QA & QC
  • Business Decision Making
  • Formulation & Product Development

Course Description
This course will be held March 7, 2018 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. (ET) and March 8, 2018 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. (ET)

To formulate a successful sunscreen product for topical application requires a multidisciplinary approach. Factors that need to be taken into consideration include the identification of the UV absorbing material within the skin, scientific learning of skin photo-biochemistry and appropriate delivery systems for optimal effectiveness and safety. 

This course will provide an overview of ultraviolet mechanisms to damage and sunscreen technologies that enable the participants to design proper strategies for successful product development and marketing.

In addition, discussion on real-life case studies will be conducted throughout the course to familiarize the participants with the complex physical-chemical framework.
