As a specialist in micronization, we thrive on improving processes for clients so they are problem free prior to validation. Real World Drug Development Problem: A client with an API with physical properties and particle shape that results in 316 stainless abrasion and API discoloration during high energy jet milling necessary to achieve particle size and dissolution specification. Off the Shelf Solution Possible at a Specialist: 1) Determine problematic pressure range. 2) Change to abrasion resistant ceramic grinding ring. 3) Verify effectiveness through in house analytical

At the very heart of every successful service business is daily teamwork and continual appreciation of what each other brings to the table in meeting a common goal….. Today was that day at Microsize! We were able to share in that appreciation of each other by breaking bread (….and eggs…..and every breakfast Pennsylvania Dutch breakfast meat known) while enjoying some laughs together. Have a micronzation need? See what this well fed team can do for you! #wherematters, #micronization, #bioavailability.

Derek Hennecke has certainly earned his right at the head of the board at Microsize (Micronization, Particle Size Engineering, Pharmaceutical Development)! Derek, along with our CEO TJ Higley, have been steady hands on the wheel guiding our growth journey since we became an independent #CDMO in 2022, focused on bringing best-in-class particle size engineering and solubility optimization technologies to our customers. Anyone interested in learning about entrepreneurship, growing a startup and being a #ventureinvestor should listen to the 4-part discussion Jon Chee of Excedr has with Derek, it's a #masterclass on creating value for patients, customers, and investors. #biotech #vc #entrepreneur #startup
"The board members have to earn their right at the table. It cannot be because they put money in. Certainly if they put money in, they can demand a right to be on a board. But if you have the choice... make sure every board member has a reason to be there and why you want them to be there." In Part 4 of The Biotech Startups Podcast conversation with former Xcelience (Acquired by Capsugel) CEO and President, Derek Hennecke, we dive deep into the nuances of effective board management and the importance of continuous learning in biotech leadership. In this episode we cover: – The critical importance of board members earning their place beyond financial contributions – Strategies for running productive and effective board meetings – The value of staying current with scientific advancements, even after years of experience – Balancing board input with management decision-making in a biotech startup – The evolving role of a biotech leader and the importance of adaptability It's a masterclass in biotech leadership, packed with invaluable insights for founders and executives at all stages of their careers. Head over to Apple Podcasts or Spotify for this episode and more stories only a biotech exec can tell! #biotechnology #lifesciences #podcast
