RESEARCH INTERESTS
Lidia Tajber is a pharmacist by qualification and gained her M. Pharm. degree (with first class honours) from Medical University of Silesia, Katowice, Poland. Her Master’s thesis focussed on dielectric spectroscopy investigations of biotechnological materials utilised in transplantology. As a postgraduate visiting student in Trinity College Dublin, prior to her doctoral studies, she concentrated on spectroscopic studies of macromolecules, e.g. liquid crystalline materials. She holds a PhD degree entitled “Investigations of physicochemical properties of spray dried drug-excipient composites directed to inhalable products” in Pharmaceutical Technology from Trinity College Dublin.
Prior to her appointment as a full-time lecturer in Pharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical Technology in 2007, she completed postdoctoral studies on the use of spray drying in the production of nanoporous microparticles. Her research interests involve two principal research themes: Preformulation and formulation aspects of solid pharmaceutical materials and Pharmaceutical systems at the nanoscale supported by Science Foundation Ireland, Enterprise Ireland, Irish Research Council, European Union and Trinity College. She has supervised (in past and at present) 16 PhD students, published 50 peer-review papers, contributed to around 70 international conference presentations and is also a co-inventor on a number of patent applications including “A method of producing porous microparticles” and “A polymeric nanoparticle”. She is currently involved in the Synthesis and Solid State Pharmaceuticals Centre (SSPC) pursuing research on advancing solid state formulations and pharmaceutical nanocrystals.

Pharm. degree from Medical University of Silesia, Katowice, Poland (with first class honours, best in class) and then pursued her Ph.D. degree in the School of Pharmacy, Trinity College Dublin (completed in 2005). She holds a postgraduate diploma in quality improvement and completed "Research leaders" training. Lidia has published 76 high quality peer-review papers and contributed to numerous international conference presentations. Her current h-index is 25. She is also a co-inventor on a number of patent applications including "A method of producing porous microparticles" and "A polymeric nanoparticle". In addition to being an active researcher, she contributes to undergraduate (Pharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical Technology module) and postgraduate (Preformulation, Formulation and Advanced Drug Delivery modules) teaching. She is part of the coordinating team for the MSc in Pharmaceutical Sciences course. Lidia's research activities fit with national policy objectives supporting the development and production of a highly educated and relevant workforce in demand by the pharmaceutical industry. She and her team have successfully participated in collaborative, multidisciplinary and industry-led research consortia (IDDN, SSPC, H2020 RISE) leading to high impact research, leveraging international funding and attracting talented people to Ireland. The ultimate objective of her work is to advance the pharmaceutical product design and manufacture to benefit the general public and enhance the quality of health.

Research Expertise
Description
My research programme concentrates on the fundamental understanding of molecular interactions governing the properties and performance of pharmaceutical substances (actives and additives) at molecular, supramolecular and formulation (drug product) levels. More specifically, the research topics pursued by my group are: . Advancement of the physicochemical and biopharmaceutical properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) by conversion into ionic liquids (anti-crystal engineering); development of oral solid formulations containing ionic liquids . Synthesis, phase characterisation and behaviour in formulation of alternative forms of APIs such as salts, cocrystals, amorphous materials, polymorphs and liquid crystals; construction of multi-phase diagrams for stability . Rational preformulation studies leading to quality solid-state formulations . Nanocrystal and polymeric nanoparticle formulation and characterisation methods My research efforts have been supported by Science Foundation Ireland (SFI), Enterprise Ireland, Irish Research Council as well as the European Union. I am involved in the Synthesis and Solid State Pharmaceuticals Centre (https://www.sspc.ie/ ) as a funded investigator. I was awarded a prestigious SFI Career Development Award in 2017 on the development of pharmaceutical ionic liquid forms and also currently serve as Director of Steering Committee in a H2020 RISE network "ORBIS" (Open Research Biopharmaceutical Internships Support (http://orbisproject.eu/ , awarded in 2017). I currently supervise a group of 8 researchers and host visiting ORBIS secondees from the pharmaceutical industry.Projects

- Active pharmaceutical ingredients as ionic liquids: significance of protonics and functional profiling for the design of effective medicines
- Summary
- A large proportion of pharmaceutical molecules exhibit low aqueous solubility and/or poor membrane transport properties resulting in low oral bioavailability and delivery problems. Thus, many compounds with high pharmacological activity are being dropped from development pipelines. To address the issue of poor solubility and/or permeability of active pharmaceutical ingredients, a new tactic is proposed whereby the active molecule is converted into an ionic liquid (IL), a functional material with superior physicochemical properties to the "parent" molecule. ILs comprise anions and cations and possess low lattice energy and low melting points, often well below 100 °C. Through the systematic investigations of structural properties of ILs, their methods of synthesis, the degree of ionisation and type of proton transport within the ILs as well as extensive pharmaceutical profiling including stability, solubility, permeability and in vitro toxicity, a new generation of ILs with tunable pharmaceutical properties (PILs) will be established. To demonstrate the pharmaceutical developability of PILs and their potential as a platform technology, prototype tablet formulations will be manufactured and tested using novel, bio-relevant dissolution stress test devices. A range of anti-inflammatory and anti-infective molecules will be examined due to their efficacy limitations that are often caused by low solubility and permeability.
