Scientists in the field of structural and computational biology, biophysics, protein formulation and stability have formed the consortium “Protein-excipient Interactions and Protein-Protein Interactions in formulation”, PIPPI, funded under the European Horizon2020 programme. The overall goal is to develop a public database with cutting-edge knowledge about the properties of proteins in pharmaceutical formulations.
PIPPI will combine systematic investigations of the physicochemical behavior of a number of proteins with an in-depth understanding of the molecular interactions behind the macroscopic behavior. The consortium consists of both academic and industrial partners located in Denmark, Sweden, Germany and United Kingdom.
