Lecturer and Adjunct Assistant Professor
Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and University of Michigan
Mainz, Germany
Dr. Jozef Al-Gousous received his BSc in Pharmacy degree from University of Jordan in 2009 followed by MSc in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the same university two years later. In 2016, he obtained his PhD from University of Mainz in Germany. This was followed by a two-year postdoctoral research stay at the lab of Dr. Gordon Amidon at University of Michigan (2017-2019). Since May 2020 he has been holding the position of a lecturer at University of Mainz and since October 2020 he has also been an Adjunct Assistant Professor at University of Michigan. The overarching theme of his research is diffusion and dissolution in pharmaceutical systems. This includes modelling and understanding of dissolution processes in reactive media and their application in mechanism-based product design. The outcomes of this research have so far ranged from developing mechanistic models for drug dissolution in intestinal bicarbonate buffer and modelling drug-excipient interaction effects on drug release to developing novel enteric polymers with improved intestinal dissolution and transdermal delivery systems for hydrophilic compounds.
