Technology

Karolinska Development has a number of projects with important applications in diagnostics, pharmaceutical formulation, and tailored treatments. Preparation of the active ingredient in a pharmaceutical may have a major impact on how the medicine is absorbed into the body, allowing for lower doses with fewer side effects for patients while increasing the shelf-life of the pharmaceutical and thereby reducing costs. Various technologies may also pave the way for new routes of administration, which may be of great benefit to the patient. The technology portfolio also contains potential improvements to implants for more rapid integration with bone.
