NUS/NIPER Hyderabad 2nd PharmSci@India 2011 Symposium

Second PharmSci@India 2011 Symposium will be held on 3rd and 4th September, 2011 at National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education & Research (NIPER), Hyderabad. PharmSci@India is a student-initiated joint symposium set up in 2010 by The American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists-National University of Singapore Student Chapter (ANSC). Our purpose is to foster relationship and to create awareness of possible collaboration between universities from these 2 countries. First PharmSci@India symposium received an exceptional inauguration at the Bombay College of Pharmacy campus, Kalina, Mumbai, in year 2010 and it served as an excellent platform for knowledge exchanges among the students from several universities in India and NUS.

Second PharmSci@India symposium at National University of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER), Hyderabad would also promote professional/scientific interactions between research students and experts from academics/industries of India and Singapore with an aim to be informed of the state-of-affairs and latest developments in pharmaceutical research. This sympoisum will comprise of enlightening talks from eminent speakers, keynote lectures and oral/poster presentations by research students.

NATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON PHARMACOVIGILANCE

12th April 2011

ORGANIZED JOINTLY BY

Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College,
Belgaum, Karnataka, India,
Regional Medical Research Centre,
Belgaum,

[as part of ICMR Centenary Celebrations] Indian Pharmacological Society, and IPS, Belgaum Branch.

Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) results in 0.3% to 7% of hospital admissions & forms 4th to 6th leading cause of death among hospitalized patients. Despite awareness, practicing doctors do not report ADRs due to their busy schedule. Hence there is a need for alternative approach to identify, analyze & report the ADRs in order to minimize the incidence. There is a need to establish Pharmacovigilance Centers across the country. 

Objectives of Pharmacovigilance activities are to detect, assess, understand and prevent the adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The objective of the symposium is to propagate the information regarding the activities of Pharmacovigilance Centers and create awareness among the practicing doctors. We request you to take the benefit of the symposium in which renowned speakers from different parts of the country are participating. Kindly bring this information to the notice of faculty members and PG’s of Pharmacology & Clinical departments and encourage them to attend the “National Symposium”. 

Please note that number of delegates is restricted to 200 on the first come first serve basis. Spot registrations are not entertained. Hoping to meet you on the day of symposium.

Punjab

STATISICS IN CLINICAL TRIALS

October 26-30, 2009

Statistics play an essential part throughout any clinical trial, from planning, conduct, interim analysis, final analysis and reporting. The statistical approaches are used in devising the randomization schedules, calculation of sample sizes for a study, criteria for measuring treatment differences and analysis of response rates. This training aims to introduce the basic principles of statistics employed in clinical trials.

Workshop Duration: 5 days

Eligibility Criteria The workshop would be open to:

• Applicants with graduate/ post-graduate qualifications in: Medical and allied fields like dentistry, homeopathy, ayurveda and veterinary science, statistics and
pharmacy
• Candidates with graduate qualifications in: Biological sciences (microbiology,biotechnology, botany, zoology), basic science (chemistry), nursing, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, social sciences with interest in clinical research may also attend.

Topics to be covered

Introduction to clinical Trials; Basic consideration in trial design & common trial designs; randomization and blinding; introduction to statistical principles; sampling distribution; tests of significance; p-value; confidence intervals; clinical & statistical significance; introduction to statistical computing using SAS; analysis of continuous and categorical data; sample size estimation and issues related to censored data; issues in efficacy evaluation and safety assessment; statistical section of a protocol and statistical analysis plan.
