Pharmaceutical Science and Clinical Applications
Imperative to therapeutic advancement is the translation of scientific innovation into health gains for the global population, which includes developing new pathways to discovery and pioneering innovative roadmaps for medical research. The integration of the practice and scientific realms of pharmacy is fast becoming a demand from both sides, with visionaries within all fields recognising the potential that each holds for the other for improving pharmacological treatments, products, protocols, safety, and patient care.
As such, FIP and the Boards of Pharmaceutical Practice and Science are pleased to offer a joint symposium, focusing on the eminent problem of counterfeit medicines, and how awareness and action from all sides are needed to curb this increasing threat to health. Complementary to this, the FIP-BPS Special Interests Groups have also assembled a programme designed to provide information related to how advancements in the pharmaceutical sciences are leading to better quality drugs and better treatment methods. Subjects addressed are aseptic control requirements, radiopharmaceutical quality control manuals, operational guidelines for hospital radiopharmacy, new trends in nuclear pharmacy, the contribution of clinical biology to Asiatic alternative medicines and the impact of pharmacogenetics on medical practice.
The workshop is designed to provide current information related to Nuclear Pharmacy practice and its implementation. Subjects addressed will be Aseptic Control Requirements and procedures unique to nuclear pharmacy practice. Issues such as equipment, individual technique validation, environmental control parameters specific to the nuclear pharmacy environment and aseptic process will be considered.
Radiopharmaceutical Quality Control Manual will include methodology and practical aspects of QC specific to radiopharmaceuticals. It will also provide the basis of a QC Manual applicable to current radiopharmaceutical QC procedures. Operational Guidelines on Hospital Radiopharmacy will address hospital unique aspects of nuclear pharmacy practice. Finally, New Trends in Nuclear Pharmacy encompasses new agents and new applications of radiopharmaceuticals in medicine.

The mission of SIG Natural Substances has continued to be to provide, world-wide, a neutral and independent platform for discussions on natural substances, i.e. herbal medicine, traditional medicine and folk medicine, related to pharmaceutical sciences. In many respects, natural products are the most important and interesting research area: their structures are often extremely complex, and their marked physiological action makes them of great importance in medicine. A number of structurally and also biologically interesting compounds are still being isolated from nature. The recent research works regarding natural products will be discussed in this SIG symposium.
Isolation of active ingredients from natural products
Development of new drugs from natural products
How to control side effects of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Total synthesis of active compounds in natural products
