About

Xiaochi Xu is a pharmaceutical scientist whose work focuses on the intersection of materials science and drug delivery, with a particular emphasis on the physical properties of solid dosage forms. In their most-cited study, "Effect of shape on the physical properties of pharmaceutical tablets" (2022, 14 citations), Xu systematically investigates how tablet geometry influences critical attributes like mechanical strength, dissolution behavior, and manufacturability. This research provides a foundational framework for optimizing tablet design, enabling more predictable drug release profiles and improved patient compliance. By bridging the gap between theoretical materials science and practical pharmaceutical engineering, Xu’s contributions help streamline formulation development and reduce production inefficiencies. Their work is especially relevant for the design of orally administered medications, where shape can significantly impact swallowing ease and therapeutic efficacy. With a growing citation record, Xu is establishing themselves as a key voice in the rational design of solid oral dosage forms, offering actionable insights for both academic researchers and industry formulators.
