 3rd International Symposium on Scientific and Regulatory Advances in Biological and Non-Biological Complex Drugs: A to Z in BioequivalenceHotel Danubius Health Spa Resort Margitsziget, Budapest, Hungary |
|||||||||||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||||||||||
The symposium will address major regulatory aspects of biological and non-biological complex drugs (NBCDs) and the paradigm shift compared to the requirements for fully characterized small molecular drugs and the established formulations. The symposium will also discuss advances in bioanalytical methodologies to characterize these complex drugs including nanostructures affecting biodistribution. Case studies will be presented to specifically focus on the bioequivalence evaluation of complex drugs.
The symposium will also provide an update on harmonization attempts for bioequivalence of small molecular drugs with an insight into drug dissolution/drug release and bioanalytical advances, including the use of Mass Spectrometry (MS), as a most progressively developing (bio-)analytical technics today.

International Patient Experience SymposiumBab Al Qasr Hotel, Abu Dhabi, UAE |

|
|||||||||||||||
Under the patronage of Ministry of Health & Prevention, BII is pleased to announce the inaugural launch of International Patient Experience Symposium scheduled for 12th -14th November 2018 in Abu Dhabi (UAE). Emphasizing the paradigm shift towards 'person-centered care' and propagating patients to be equal partners of their own care journey; the event will re-imagine the existing care models and help deliver on the strategic promise of experience excellence.
With many healthcare organisations struggling to define what the patient experience really looks like it is important to understand the role that everyone plays throughout the patient's journey at all levels, from the Hospital CEO to the clinical staff to the receptionist.
The event speakers, all senior-level experts from leading healthcare organizations; will dive deep into evidence based best practices, case studies, and expert insights into technology, tools, and strategies being used right now. No matter where your organization is on the journey to patient experience, you'll walk away with smart insights, actionable tactics and an imagination full of possibilities to drive your patient experience strategy to the next level.

2nd European Faculty Development Workshop: November 16-18, 2018 in Dubrovnik, Croatia
The workshop is titled “Engaging in New Methods of Teaching and Assessment in Pharmacy Education” and it aims to actively engage participants in activities where they can learn and practice developing strategies in the following areas of teaching and assessment. Participants in the workshop will be fully engaged in case studies, small group work, and guided activities. These activities will both simulate teaching and assessment methods presented and offer opportunities for participants to identify and develop ways to implement these strategies at their institution. Ultimately, participants should leave the workshop with a teaching, learning, and assessment plan template unique to their institution or program and also identify additional resources they need to be successful in implementing new methods of teaching and assessment.| 20 November 2018 | ||||||||||
Webinar: Clostridium difficile infection management and outcomes: considerations in a resource-limited setting14:00 CET, Online |
||||||||||
|
||||||||||
C. difficile infection (CDI) is understudied in low-resource settings. A recent epidemiology, management and outcomes study in South Africa found a significant risk of in-hospital mortality in patients who tested positive for C. difficile. Opportunities to improve management will be described. While metronidazole was found to be the most common initial therapy, recent evidence proves vancomycin is more efficacious. Considerations for the clinical use of metronidazole compared with vancomycin in a resource-limited setting will be presented.

Ageing populations and the consequent increase in the number of people taking multiple medicines for long-term conditions create a need for the development of targeted services to improve care at the community level and quality of life. Enabling people to live a longer and better life should be the overarching goal of every health system. Health professionals, patients and the broader community must work together to achieve this goal.| 29 November 2018 | ||||||||||

24th EAHP Congress: PERSONALISED HOSPITAL PHARMACY Meeting the needs of every patientCentre de Convencions Internacional de Barcelona, Spain |
||||||||||
|
||||||||||
The 24th Congress of the EAHP will focus on the need for tailored medication and
approach to treatment for different patient groups and individuals. We are building a
scientific programme in which the aim is to rediscover the need for tailored medication and approach to treatment for different patient groups and individuals.
The scientific program of the Congress is also tailored to the needs of individual hospital pharmacists and their interest groups as the Congress offers the possibility to choose
between many parallel sessions, keynote presentations, workshops and symposia, and plenty of networking opportunities.
The programme will serve as the source of knowledge and inspiration that is needed for our future role and engagement in personalised medication.
This is your opportunity to join experts from around the world in Barcelona to share
experience and ideas and to learn from each other and to discuss all aspects of personalised medication under one roof.
Join us for the 24th Congress of the EAHP and enjoy an all-round Barcelona experience!| 09 May 2019- 12 May 2019 | ||||||||||||
