About

Alexander Ferro Uriguen is a leading researcher in pharmaceutical safety and occupational exposure, with a focused expertise in the handling of hazardous medicinal products (HMPs). His work critically addresses the risks healthcare workers face when preparing antineoplastic sterile medications. In his most cited study, "Monitoring of occupational exposure to hazardous medicinal products in robotic compounding" (2025), he pioneers the evaluation of robotic compounding systems as a safer alternative to manual preparation. By measuring surface contamination levels of HMPs on ready-to-use products, Uriguen provides vital data that bridges automation technology and occupational health. This research, already garnering early citations, underscores his impact in shaping safer pharmacy practices. His contributions are particularly notable for advancing evidence-based protocols that minimize exposure risks, directly influencing hospital safety standards and regulatory guidelines. Uriguen’s work stands as a cornerstone for researchers and practitioners seeking to integrate robotics into sterile compounding, making him a key voice in the evolving landscape of pharmaceutical safety and industrial hygiene.
