Noura Kray is a Master of Pharmacy (MPharm) graduate of King's College London, currently undertaking her pre-registration training year. She has a strong and growing interest in drug research and development, with a particular enthusiasm for drug delivery systems and a specific research focus on pulmonary and inhaled drug delivery.
For her final-year project, she investigated the drug release profiles of salbutamol sulphate from alginate-based bioaerogel microparticles, applying mathematical models to characterise release kinetics for novel respiratory formulations, an experience that strengthened her ambition to pursue further research into more efficient drug delivery systems.
Noura's experience spans both community and hospital pharmacy settings, giving her a well-rounded understanding of patient care across the healthcare system. This dual perspective allows her to bridge the link between drug development and patient care.
In addition to her academic work, Noura served as a Student Ambassador at King's College London in her third year, supporting prospective students through open days and campus tours, representing the MPharm programme at outreach events, and mentoring junior students. Driven by her passion for pharmaceutical innovation, she is now exploring future career pathways in drug research and development and the pharmaceutical industry.
