WCoP 2016: World Conference on Pharmacometrics August 21-24 Brisbane Australia

The WCoP Executive Committee is pleased to announce the second World Conference on Pharmacometrics. It will be held in Brisbane, Australia, from 21-24 August 2016. WCoP 2016 follows the inaugural and very successful World Conference held in Seoul, Korea in 2012. The WCoP Executive Committee will work in partnership with the Population Approach Group of Australia and New Zealand (PAGANZ) and its sponsor the Australian Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics (ASCEPT). PAGANZ has established a proven track record of teaching and research in pharmacometrics with as strong application to clinical medicine. This experience will empower participants in WCoP 2016. The WCoP 2016 website ( http://wcop2016.org/ ) will be continuously updated as more information is available.
