About Pharmaceutical Online

For more than two decades, Pharmaceutical Online has been an integral resource for professionals who are actively involved in the development, manufacture, packaging, and distribution of FDA-approved small molecule drug products. The Pharmaceutical Online community is not composed of generalists. They’re specialists, like us, focusing on the critical roles within small molecule drug manufacturing – process development, chemical synthesis, purification, formulation, quality control, packaging, and distribution. We deliver in-depth content on these topics from specialized, subject matter experts who work in this landscape.

Authority And Experience

Chief Editor Katie Anderson brings nearly two decades of editorial experience in business-to-business media. After earning her master’s degree in journalism, she began her career at the personal care R&D trade journal Cosmetics & Toiletries. There, she thrived on the constant flow of knowledge gained from interviewing chemists, regulatory experts, formulators and testing professionals in the field.

After nearly eight years with Cosmetics & Toiletries, Katie pursued her passion for skin physiology and ingredient science as Managing Editor of the professional esthetics brand Skin Inc. That same year, she also took on the role of Conference Director for Face and Body, where she developed and managed the event’s educational programming.

Following an acquisition, Katie was promoted to Editor-in-Chief of five professional media brands: Nailpro, Skin Inc., Beauty Launchpad, Medical Esthetics, and WellSpa 360.

Throughout her 19-year editorial career, Katie has held a variety of roles, but her passion has always been scientific editorial. She is the recipient of a bronze Folio Eddie Award for a single science article. She has frequently contributed her expertise as a guest speaker on industry podcasts, webcasts, conferences and video interviews. A lifelong learner, she enjoys the challenge of translating complex technical content into material that is both accurate and accessible.

All the content on Pharmaceutical Online is created by subject matter experts with years (and sometimes decades) of hands-on experience working in some aspect of small molecule drug manufacturing. Members of the Pharmaceutical Online community access content from:

Experts currently working at biopharma companies, developing and manufacturing therapies.

Specialized pharmaceutical consultants, leveraging and sharing their specialized professional experience.

Thought leaders from companies and organizations that provide critical products and services to the small molecule therapy industry.

In addition to offering specialized content from subject matter experts, Pharmaceutical Online also hosts the Virtual Pharma Expo. The digital event has been held twice per year since its initial launch in 2021. Members of the community are given the opportunity to learn about products and services related to solid dose manufacturing, aseptic fill-finish, and drug packaging. Virtual Pharma Expo offers live product demos from equipment manufacturers and an interactive forum for attendees to ask questions and gather additional information.
