Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the next PAGANZ scientific meeting to be held in
Adelaide, Australia, 6th to 8th February 2017. Registration closes 23rd
January.
Please visit the PAGANZ home page for details and links to registration for the
meeting: https://www.paganz.org/adelaide-2017/
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. Shiny apps in R for simulation (1/2 day)
2. Ordinary differential equations in R / PKADVAN package-analytical solutions
in R (1/2 day)
3. Multi-state receptor theory and "biased" ligands (1/2 day).
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 "PK/PD Modeling and Simulation to
Streamline Drug Development on Earth and in Space" will be given by Prof.
Hartmut Derendorf, Department of Pharmaceutics at the University of Florida
College of Pharmacy.
We look forward to seeing you in February!
Regards,
David Foster
