What is this all about?
2nd International Symposium on Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics (DMPK) Applications toward Drug Discovery and Development 27th and 28th February 2010 in association with Bristol-Myers Squibb and National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER) S.A.S. Nagar 160 062, Punjab, India
National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER) has been established by the Government of India under the aegis of Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers at S.A.S. Nagar (Mohali). The institute has been declared as an Institute of National Importance by an act of Parliament.
ABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM
The main goals of the Symposium are to: 1) provide a better understanding of the role that drug metabolism, drug transporters, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics play in the drug discovery/development process; 2) evaluate new and current techniques and models associated with drug metabolism and drug transporters, as well as development of pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic models; 3) gain insights into the issues encountered during the drug discovery process and the interface between discovery and clinical development; and 4) identify processes for reducing the attrition of drug candidates through a better understanding of metabolism and in vitro and in vivo correlations.
This is primarily a lecture-based symposium intended for students and scientists from industry, academia, health-based government organizations, and healthcare professionals with a background in chemistry, biology, or the pharmaceutical sciences, with some experience in the principles and techniques of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics. The symposium is also intended for experienced researchers in these areas who wish to broaden or supplement their area of expertise, as well as contribute to the discussion topics. Experts from India and abroad in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics will give presentations and lead discussions at the Symposium.
