Problem Solver
David Anderson
Areas David Anderson is Knowledgeable in:
Chemical formulations (pharma, personal care, industrial, etc.); microencapsulation; electret filters; dispersions and emulsions; polymers; 3D printing; nanoparticles and nanotech; analytical chemistry; X-ray scattering; lipids and surfactants, self-assembly; phase behavior; mathematical modeling.
Techniques David Anderson Uses:
With a strong postgraduate background in both mathematics (statistics concentration) and chemical engineering, I am able to design and analyze experiments using the full force of my mathematical modeling and statistical abilities. This I couple with rigorous literatures searches to ensure my approach is state-of-art, and in the full light of physical chemistry principles that are often unknown or ignored by most scientists and even chemists.

David Anderson's Problem Solving Experience:
- I invented new electret filter media that for the first time incorporate permanent electric charges spatially distributed on the micron scale.
- I invented, developed, and licensed out a new drug-delivery platform for difficultly-soluble and poorly-absorbed drugs.
- I invented a coronary stent that employs dissolution-limited kinetics for sustained release of novel endothelial cell health promoting drugs.
- I conceived of, designed, and led in the development of 3 sterile injectable drug formulations now in the approval process.
