How better material decisions shape drug delivery devices
Wednesday, 29 April, 2026
In this episode of BioPhorum Connect, Loic Bishop is joined by Lucas Pianagonda, a materials science expert in sustainable plastics, to explore how sustainability can be embedded into the design and material selection of drug delivery devices. The discussion covers key pressures driving change in biopharma, practical challenges in redesigning established devices, and where meaningful sustainability gains can realistically be made—spanning eco-design, material trade-offs, lifecycle assessment, and emerging trends such as mass balance plastics and AI-enabled material selection.
