The AAPS Introductions in the Pharmaceutical Sciences book series is designed to
support pharmaceutical scientists at the point of knowledge transition. Springer and
the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS) have partnered again
to produce a second series that juxtaposes the AAPS Advances in the Pharmaceutical
Sciences series. Whether shifting between positions, business models, research
project objectives, or at a crossroad in professional development, scientists need to
retool to meet the needs of the new scientific challenges ahead of them. These
educational pivot points require the learner to develop new vocabulary in order to
effectively communicate across disciplines, appreciate historical evolution within
the knowledge area with the aim of appreciating the current limitations and potential
for growth, learn new skills and evaluation metrics so that project planning and
subsequent evolution are evidence-based, as well as to simply “dust the rust off”
content learned in previous educational or employment settings, or utilized during
former scientific explorations. The Introductions book series will meet these needs
and serve as a quick and easy-to-digest resource for contemporary science.
