Delaware Valley Pharmacometrics Discussion Group

Dear Colleagues, Friends and conspirators have banned together to form the Delaware Valley Pharmacometrics Discussion Group which will host technical discussions periodically (planned every other month) starting in January, 2012. The intention is to provide a forum for technical discussion related to pharmacometric methodology, tools, coding, applications and of course analyses in an open and interative environment. Founding Principals: - Impact is not required - No Powerpoint - Provide details or don't present - Ask questions, discuss, debate, swear and cuss as you like The meetings will be rotated at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, GSK and Centocor on alternating meetings. Other sites are welcome to host of course. This is just to get us started. We will provide details for the first meeting shortly (likely to be at CHOP) and a website advertising upcoming events will be created as well. This will serve the "blue collar" pharmacometrician and hence there will be a low budget ($10 for pizza, soda, etc) if you like. We will try for no budget in the future if we can get some generous sponsors. Post meeting discussions at the Pub are likely for those needing liquid protection from the elements. All are welcome!

Barrett, PhD, FCP Director, Laboratory for Applied PK/PD Director, Pediatric Pharmacology Research Unit The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Professor of Pediatrics, University of Pennsylvania Medical School Kinetic Modeling and Simulation (KMAS) Core Director ________________________________
