Name: Romain Topalian

Host Organisation: Biberach University of Applied Science, Germany

Project Title: Safe-by-Design

Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Chrystelle Mavoungou

Objectives of the Project:

The overall goal of this project is the development of a Safe-by-Design data-based computational platform for the intranasal drug delivery system in support of toxicological determination of intranasal drug delivery systems.

The specific goals are:

  1. Safe-by-Design approach by means of data-based modelling;
  2. Optimal design of Drug Delivery Systems, based on innovative safe-by-design computational tools and methodology.

Short Biography:

My name is Romain Topalian and I am a recent college graduate with a dual french-german Master’s Degree in Biochemical engineering.

After several experiences abroad, I decided to pursue a PhD in a field that was completely unknown for me: Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Always eager to discover new fields of science, I decided to join the Bio2Brain project at the Hochschule Biberach in order to link my scientific knowledge to the AI.

Personally, I particularly enjoy gathering people around a good French meal.
