- Date :29 March 2018
- Location: UMC Groningen, The Netherlands
We are happy to invite you to the 12th Pharmacometrics Network Benelux Meeting and pre-symposium workshop.
This initiative aims to connect pharmacometricians in the Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg). The intention is to create an informal platform for the pharmacometrics community in this region of the world (in industry, academia, hospital pharmacies as well as regulatory bodies), with the goal to promote professional and scientific awareness and interactions. This 2018 spring event has been made possible by the combined efforts of the departments of Clinical Pharmacy and Pharmacology and Anaesthesiology and the PKPD Platform of GUIDE / GRIP.
The symposium and pre-symposium workshop will be held Thursday the 29th of March at the UMCG in Groningen (Onderwijscentrum, Winkelstraat 1). There is no registration fee, but registration is required for participation. Please use the following links to register for the symposium and/or pre-symposium workshop before March 23rd.
