Medicines for Children: Improvement through innovation
21st - 22nd June 2012
UCL School of Pharmacy, London
Please find attached a brochure for this exciting 2 day event, of which we hope you will be able to attend. Please feel free to forward onto your colleagues who may also be interested.
This two day event organised by the Pharmacy and Pharmacology Clinical Studies Group (CSG) of the MCRN, aims to aid participants in understanding the contemporary issues which researchers and clinicians face in the delivery of safe and effective medicines to children. Topics covered range from formulation of medicines for children (including influence of excipients on formulation safety), personalised medicines and issues influencing medication adherence in children through to issues around the conduct of clinical trials and registration of medicines for paediatric use. The range of topics, together with a mix of plenary and workshop sessions, promises to make this an engaging experience for all participants.
There is also a call for posters and sponsorship and exhibition opportunities for this event. Details are enclosed in the attached brochure.
