Discover Strategies to Maintain a Global Pharmacovigilance System this June at SMi’s 5th Drug Safety conference

Drug Safety 2018 aims to discuss the latest findings and current thinking on pharmacovigilance. Importantly, it will address the newest regulatory updates and interpretations of them, including the impact of the vital and much awaited Clinical Trial Regulations.
