As we near the end of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we would like to emphasise the critical importance of early detection—because it truly saves lives!

Excited to share that this year, NBI partnered with the University of Kwa-Zulu Natal (UKZN) School of Pharmacy to launch a new module: Industrial Pharmacy (PHRM 464). This collaboration is designed to equip future pharmacists with critical insights into product development, manufacturing, quality assurance, clinical considerations, and regulatory compliance. By emphasizing industrial pharmacy, we’re enhancing the academic curriculum while supporting professional development, ensuring graduates are prepared for the evolving needs of the pharmaceutical sector. This academia-industry partnership not only drives innovation but also contributes to advancing healthcare delivery through the cultivation of skilled professionals. #nbi #pharmacy #industrialpharmacy

This week marks the celebration of National Science Week (30 September – 5 October), themed “Living in a high-tech world: should we be concerned?”. We spoke with Dr Andrè Germishuizen, a brilliant scientist and the Head of Quality and Scientific Affairs at NBI, to get his insights on how NBI is navigating the challenges and opportunities presented in this high-tech era. With over 20 years of experience in sterile injectable biopharmaceuticals, Dr. Germishuizen is enthusiastic about leading NBI's efforts in biosimilars development, with key areas such as the manufacturing processes, scalability, and regulatory compliance. Young scientists are encouraged to pursue studies in these fields to contribute to South Africa's growing biomanufacturing capabilities and the integration of high-tech developments into the economy. #NSW #nbi #ScienceForAll

Heritage Day is a time to celebrate the rich, vibrant culture of our Rainbow Nation. This year, more than ever, South Africans have come together with an inspiring sense of unity and hope.
