Pharmacovigilance
This course is designed for undergraduate graduates who aspire to deepen their knowledge and skills in the field of pharmacovigilance and clinical trials. The course provides a detailed understanding of drug safety monitoring processes and methodologies used in clinical research, essential for ensuring the efficacy and safety of drug treatments.
The target group of this course includes professionals from various fields of medical and pharmaceutical sciences, such as pharmacists who wish to expand their knowledge in post-marketing drug monitoring, physicians interested in the clinical aspects of pharmaceutical safety, and licensed pharmacy assistants who want to specialize in pharmacovigilance. The course is also aimed at chemists and chemical engineers involved in drug development and analysis, as well as biologists and biochemists who want to better understand the biological impact of drug substances and contribute to clinical trials.
By participating in this course, professionals will acquire advanced skills in drug risk assessment and management, clinical trial data interpretation, and the application of international regulations in the field. Thus, they will be prepared to contribute significantly to improving the safety and effectiveness of medical treatments.
