A Training School on "Medicines Shortages" (COST Action CA15105) addressing Pharmaceutical Supply Chains (SC) is to be held at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), Lisboa, Portugal, 26-28 of April-2017, to discuss topics relevant to Pharmaceutical SC within the COST Action "Medicines Shortages" (CA15105) , European Medicines Shortages Research Network - addressing supply problems to patients.
The PROGRAM considers a SEMINAR open to the general public in the very first day (26-April-2017). The seminar will introduce the Action, its main goals, methodology and workplan; the participants in the Seminar-day are also gaining a complete overview of the Training School, since the main topics of the technical sessions in the following days are also presented.
Technical sessions on Pharmaceutical SC:
A fully follow up of the 3-days is strongly recommended for those participants interested in "Medicines Shortages" and in Pharmaceutical SC. However, attending either the seminar-day, the workshop, or only one of the technical sessions can be allowed upon registration.
