Scott Tavernini is a Research Engineer and PhD student at the University of Alberta (Canada) working and studying under the supervision of Dr. Andrew Martin. Scott completed his MSc in 2018 under the supervision of Dr. Warren Finlay with a focus in quantifying nasal deposition in neonates. Afterwards, he continued work at the Aerosol Research Laboratory of Alberta in a research and development capacity. In this role, he was instrumental in the development of a filter which mimics tracheobronchial airway deposition and led the integration of this filter into an in vitro apparatus enabling rapid estimation of regional lung deposition. He began doctoral studies in January of 2023 where he is focusing on measuring dissolution kinetics of solubility-limited drugs subjected to physiologically relevant conditions, with an ultimate goal of unifying in-vitro measurements of regional deposition and dissolution with in-silico modeling of pharmacokinetics.
