MEDELPHARM Launches STYL’One University Contest: Win a STYL’One Nano on Free Loan for Two Years!

MEDELPHARM just announced the STYL’One University Contest, offering universities the chance to win a STYL’One Nano Compaction Simulator on a free loan for two years.
This contest highlights their commitment to supporting academic institutions and fostering scientific innovation.

Why Choose the STYL’One Nano?

The STYL’One Nano Compaction Simulator is a state-of-the-art tool designed for precision and versatility in powder compression research. Key benefits include:

• Precise control and analysis: Simulate various tableting conditions and optimize formulations with high accuracy
• Advanced Instrumentation: Measure compression forces, punch displacement, and ejection forces for detailed analysis
• Versatility: Supports a wide range of tablet formats and tooling options
• Efficiency: Screen formulations quickly with minimal material requirements
• Ease of use: Compact design, easy maintenance, and quick tool setup

This technology enhances research quality and accelerates the develop ²ent of formulations in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and other fields.

Scientific Benefits

The STYL’One Nano is equipped with advanced features that provide significant scientific value:

• Data analysis: The Alix software allows researchers to collect and analyze high-resolution data and seamlessly plot manufacturability, tabletability, compressibility and compactibility profiles.
• Material characterization: It enables detailed characterization of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients, even with minimal material quantities
• Process optimization: Researchers can evaluate the effects of process parameters on tablet quality attributes, facilitating the optimization of formulations and manufacturing processes at the R&D stage
• Mimicking of production conditions: The Compaction Simulator can replicate the pre-compression and main compression stages of an R&D rotary tablet press, providing insights into production-scale processes

Prizes

• First Prize: A STYL’One Nano on free loan for two years, providing access to cutting-edge technology for your research projects.
• Second Prize: Access to MEDELPHARM Science Lab/KORSCH INNOVATION CENTER services for a week, allowing winners to conduct experiments using advanced equipment and benefit from our expertise.
• Third Prize: An entrance ticket to the international scientific conference AAPS or the Tabletting School seminar at De Montfort University, offering valuable networking and learning opportunities.

How to Participate

To enter the contest, universities must submit project proposals detailing the innovative aspects of their research and how the STYL’One Nano would be instrumental in their work. The MEDELPHARM committee will review all submissions and select the most promising projects. Shortlisted universities will present their projects in a 15-minute online session to the committee, which will then choose the final three winners.

Eligibility and Application

The contest is open to all universities involved in powder compression research, including fields such as pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, personal and home care, food, and industrial applications. The application deadline is April 20th, 2025.

Submission Requirements

Applicants must provide detailed information about their project, including its innovative aspects, the role of the STYL’One Nano in their research, potential collaborations with other universities or industrial partners, and the visibility of the project within the scientific community. Additionally, universities should include details about their equipment, ongoing and future projects, academic programs related to compression, and their involvement in scientific conferences and publications.
