Extension services in pharmacy and the school of pharmacy of the University of Wisconsin “will offer three. week-long training courses for BS-Level technicians in product development and analytical laboratory work, according to William L. Blockstein, professor and extension chairman. First two courses, combining lectures and laboratory exercises are “Aspects of Pharmaceutical Development I”:’“ Solutions” and “II.;Disperse Systems.” First course, set for June 16–20 repeats a similar course first offered in 1968. The second course, June 23–27, is a logical development of a sequence that will advance competence of workers in the liquid dosage forms. Thuro Carstensen will offer both courses. August 18–22 are the dates for “Electrometric Methods of Analysis,” for analytical workers in the industry. This course follows two previous courses offered in 1967 and 1968, which dealt with spectroscopic analytical methods. John J. Windheuser and John H. Perrin will be instructors.
