The aim of this special interest group is to enable young scientists (MS/PhD students, postdocs, and early-career scientists) to impact the future of the global pharmaceutical sciences community. We also strive to connect young scientists in academia, industry, and government and offer an opportunity for global networking.

• Establish a formal FIP platform for exchange among international young pharmaceutical scientists
• Enhance cross-disciplinary activities with non-pharmacy professions
• Enable effective outreach activities to pharmaceutical sciences communities during the formative years
• Interfacing with other FIP or non-FIP groups of young people focused on development and use of new medical products (e.g., YPG, IPSF)
• Serve as a platform for mentorship of future leaders in pharmaceutical sciences with a global vision

How we work

Activities

• In 2018 the New Generation of Pharmaceutical Scientist (NGPS) SIG was introduced and work has commenced to recruit a leadership team.
