There's a lot going on in the clinical trial and IRT/IWRS arena these days. New trends are appearing left and right, from basket studies, to increased transparency, to a soaring reliance on big data. How is anyone supposed to keep up with it all?
Luckily, there are several major clinical trial events each year where anyone interested in the space can get their extra dose (no pun intended) of knowledge. To make life easier, we've compiled a roundup of some of the most important upcoming events here, along with why you should attend and how you can get more info.
- September 16-17: ISPE's European Investigational Products Conference

1. September 16-17: ISPE's European Investigational Products Conference
This will be a great opportunity for clinical supply professionals to meet in Europe and discuss changing regulations, new clinical research trends and technology, and more active patient engagement. Through interactive workshops, case studies, presentations and networking opportunities, this conference provides a valuable forum to share experiences, discuss best practices and explore alternative approaches and innovations. There will also be a 1/2 day pre-conference workshop on Interactive Response Techologies (IRT/IWRS) which we're naturally excited about.
If you're an investigational products/clinical trial professional involved in the planning, design, manufacturing, packaging, logistics and distribution of investigational medicinal products, you definitely need to be at this conference.
