  Atheer is the APS Emerging Technologies Focus Group’s Post-doc representative. Atheer received her Bachelor’s degree in Pharmacy from Applied Science University in Jordan. She then pursued an MSc in Pharmaceutics at UCL School of Pharmacy, University College of London, where her research was aimed at exploring the potential of 3D printing for the formulation of abuse-deterrent and alcohol-resistant formulations. Earlier this year, she completed a PhD in Pharmaceutics at the same institution where her research was focused on fabrication of novel, bespoke pharmaceutical dosage forms using 3D printing.  Currently, Atheer is working as a Research Fellow at UCL School of Pharmacy as part of the Interreg 2 Seas Mers Zeeën project for site-specific drug delivery, looking into using 3D printing to improve colonic drug delivery.  She is one of youngest and leading researchers on the 3D printing of pharmaceuticals. In the past three years, she has published over 20 pap...

Get To Know Prof Clive Roberts

  A career trying to help 'Emerging Technologies' be accepted   Whilst I still feel as excited as ever by the potential of the latest technologies and ideas to move research forward, I can reflect on a long career where I have seen many technologies emerge, some to blossom, some to disappear and then perhaps come back again.     For me personally I was so lucky to have had a PhD in Physics at Imperial College in the late 80's building and using the revolutionary Scanning Tunelling Microscope invented in 1981 at IBM to visualise and manipulate atoms and molecules. This tool changed the way we thought about ultra-resolution microscopy and provided a huge impetus for other technologies such as electron microscopy to improve. For me this led to my first research post in the School of Pharmacy, Nottingham University to apply STMs and the sister technique Atomic Force Microscopy in biomolecular and pharmaceutical analysis. Working in a multidisciplinary area s...
