Invitation to 3rd pre-PAGE Educational Pharmacometrics Summer Symposium

Dear NMusers, We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming third Educational Pharmacometrics Summer Symposium (EPSS), which will be held on 25 June 2024, at the PAGE venue. This one-day symposium will bring together experts and professionals in the field of pharmacometrics (PMx) to give an overview of what PMx is and how it can contribute to model-informed drug development and therapy individualisation (programme https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VeOOIkwmR_co0qtal9fFfJssF6sbPNp4/view). In short, the symposium will begin with a brief introduction to PMx, followed by a discussion on the use of PMx to optimise and personalise treatment. After lunch and networking, the use of PMx in drug development, covering preclinical and clinical applications, will be presented, followed by PMx case studies, which will be based on submitted student abstracts. The symposium will conclude with a short group work session. With speakers from academia, pharmaceutical industry and consultancy, this event covers a broad range of PMx roles and may also be a great opportunity for those looking for the next step in their career development. The symposium is intended for students from all natural sciences (Master and PhD), postdocs, and others with an interest in pharmacometrics, such as, clinical pharmacists, clinicians, mathematicians, statisticians, or colleagues from industry. Students or postdocs/trainees may apply to present their original PMx-related work as a part of the symposium (submitted abstract should not exceed 4,500 characters, including spaces, and may be the same as for the PAGE meeting); abstract submission deadline is 26 May 2024. The participation is free of charge. Light lunch will be provided. To register please follow this link https://forms.gle/QnKCqPv8yGnEMvmPA (open until 26 May 2024). Based on last years’ positive feedback, register early to avoid missing out. For more information, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected]. Best wishes, EPSS 2024 organisers: Eva Germovsek (Boehringer Ingelheim), Jurij Aguiar Zdovc (Pharmetheus), Ludovica Aiello (University of Pavia)
