Handbook of Industrial Crystallization: (3rd Revised edition)

Allan S. Myerson is Professor of the Practice of Chemical Engineering in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Professor Myerson's research focuses on separations processes in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry with an emphasis on crystallization from solution, nucleation, polymorphism and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Professor Myerson has received a number of award including the American Chemical Society Award in Separations Science and Technology (2008), the AIChE Separations Division Clarence G. Gerhold Award (2015) and the AICHE Process Development Division Excellence in Process Development Research Award (2015). Deniz Erdemir is a Principal Scientist at Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS). Dr Erdemir's research focus lies at the drug substance/drug product interface with emphasis on crystal polymorphism and design of materials via particle engineering to enable robust drug products. She has published twelve papers and she is the inventor on two US patents. Alfred Y. Lee is an Associate Principal Scientist in the Department of Process Research and Development at Merck & Co., Inc. Prior to his current position, Dr Lee was a Principal Scientist at GlaxoSmithKline PLC. Dr. Lee's scientific interests are in the area of crystal engineering, crystallization process development, materials characterization, polymorphism, and the physical chemistry of solids.
