Dr Georgina Marsh currently works as the Head of Pharmacy and is an Associate Professor in Pharmaceutics and Clinical Pharmacy. Georgina's research interests focuses on the development of novel dosage forms tailored to the needs of the patient, including; pharmaceutical additive manufacturing (3D printing), paediatrics, biomimetics and pharmacy education.
Georgina gained a Master of Pharmacy with Honours (MPharm Hons) 1st class degree from The University of Nottingham in 2012, followed by an industrial pre-registration year and a PhD in the CDT at the University of Nottingham for formulation sciences and targeted therapeutics, evaluating particle adhesion to 3D printed micron scale morphologies. Prior to joining the University of Suffolk in March 2025, Georgina worked for AstraZeneca as a senior formulation scientist (2018-2019) in product development and an Assistant Professor in Pharmacy at the University of Nottingham Malaysia (2019-2023), where Georgina was the Programme Manager of the first Malaysia Young Entrepreneur Scheme 2021. Georgina has recently joined from Swansea University where she worked as a Senior Lecturer in Clinical Pharmacy (2023-2025).
Over five years of academic experience including the design, development and delivery of lectures, workshops and laboratory classes to groups of 40-100 students in pharmaceutics, clinical pharmacy and pharmacy practice.
Programme mapping and curriculum design for the MPharm programme.
Master of Pharmacy (MPharm)
Georgina’s research focuses on the development of novel dosage forms tailored to the needs of the patient. One of the main avenues of research involves the 3D printing (additive manufacturing) of pharmaceuticals. Georgina is always looking out for collaborators who have a clinical need who are interested in exploring the possibility of using 3D printing as a solution.
