The Pharmacy Department held open defenses for the graduation projects of its third batch of bachelor’s students, marking a major step toward the upcoming commencement celebrations scheduled for next month. The session highlighted a series of research studies tackling critical pharmaceutical and clinical challenges with both local and global relevance.
One project focused on the green manufacturing of silver nanoparticles as an alternative to traditional antibiotics, presenting a sustainable solution to the growing problem of drug-resistant pathogens. Another study applied the Biowaiver principle to evaluate the quality of doxycycline hyclate tablet brands available in Taiz, emphasizing the importance of bioequivalence for medicines in the Yemeni market.
A third project assessed medication adherence among patients using statins for dyslipidemia, offering valuable insights into how well treatment guidelines are being followed and the factors influencing compliance. The final study examined pharmacovigilance awareness and practices among healthcare professionals in Taiz, highlighting the need to strengthen drug safety monitoring and improve patient protection.
Faculty supervisors commended the students for their dedication and the quality of their work, noting the strong link between academic knowledge and practical application. The projects, they said, not only demonstrated scientific rigor but also reflected the department’s commitment to advancing pharmaceutical research and addressing pressing health concerns in the community.
