Pharmacovigilance and Risk Management conference will bring together major pharma and biotech manufacturers as well as the regulators to find solutions to this increasingly important issue. This event will cover topics such as effectively monitoring RMPs and best practice in their implementation; exploring global pharmacovigilance approaches and creating global risk minimization strategies; increasing public awareness of the benefit:risk ratio of medicines and ensuring physicians fully comply to the pharmacovigilance regulations; and ensuring the data exchange between companies.
This educational two-day conference, tailored to maximise the sharing of knowledge and expertise and to promote networking for professionals in this area, will ensure you effectively manage risk management with current medicines to mitigate any risks to patients.
