Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to announce the next PAGANZ scientific meeting to be held in Dunedin, New Zealand, 29-31 January 2014. Please visit the Dunedin meeting home page for details of the meeting: http://www.paganz.org/dunedin-2014/ Who should attend? The PAGANZ meeting is the Australasian forum for scientists with a research and professional interest in the use of the population approach in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. A strong focus of this meeting is the application of population modelling and simulation techniques in the experimental, clinical and regulatory settings of drug development. This meeting is designed for scientists and clinicians working in basic or clinical pharmacology research, pharmaceutical industry, regulatory bodies and postgraduate students. The meeting combines hands on workshops led by leaders in the field and a one and half day scientific meeting giving researchers the opportunity to present and discuss their own work. This is a very informal meeting and in the past has been very productive in helping and guiding researchers in this important area of pharmacology and drug development. Population Analysis Workshops (1.5 days) PAGANZ runs 2 workshops (Beginners & Intermediate). The workshops consist of lectures and hands-on exercises at a computer. During the hands-on exercises, tutors will be available for consultation and assistance. The Beginners Workshop introduces the theory and application of NONMEM. The Intermediate Workshop will cover: 1. Hands-on experience using Phoenix NLME. 2. Lifespan models. PAGANZ Scientific Meeting (1.5 days) The PAGANZ meeting includes a variety of free communications that highlight recent advances in the theory and application of the population approach to pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in different clinical settings and in drug development. Each year PAGANZ invites an international renowned speaker to give the ISOP lecture. This year the ISOP lecture will be given by Prof. Leon Aarons, University of Manchester, UK. We look forward to seeing you next January! Regards, Steve Duffull On Behalf of the PAGANZ Organising Committee -- Professor Stephen Duffull, School of Pharmacy, University of Otago, PO Box 56, Dunedin 9054, New Zealand.
