PhD Students and Young PostDocs
Young Pharmaceutical Scientists Meet in Amsterdam.
Register early!

The new millennium in 2000 saw the first Pharmaceutical Sciences World Congress (PSWC2000) take place in San Francisco, bringing together 2,500 pharmaceutical scientists from around the world. The second of its kind took place in the spring of 2004 in Kyoto, Japan (PSWC2004) drawing an even larger number of participants. The third world congress devoted to global developments in the pharmaceutical sciences will convene in the exciting city of Amsterdam, April 22-25, 2007, and will centre on the theme:

Optimising Drug Therapy:
An Imperative for World Health

The programme committee, chaired by renowned pharmaceutical scientists, ensures excellence in programme quality and widespread visibility of the event. Like its predecessors, the PSWC2007 will cover a broad spectrum of topics from basic to applied and clinical sciences, addressing timely issues of great importance to drug discovery, development, regulation, and medication management. PSWC2007 will also feature interactive round table discussions, public debates, poster sessions, an exhibition, and will devote significant attention to the future generation of pharmaceutical scientists through poster and podium presentations, as well as a pre-conference meeting for graduate students and post-doctoral fellows.

PSWC2007 is co-sponsored by many of the world’s leading pharmaceutical scientific and educational organisations, including the European Federation for Pharmaceutical Sciences (EUFEPS) , the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS), the Australasian Pharmaceutical Science Association (APSA), the Academy of Pharmaceutical Sciences of Great Britain (APSGB), the Association de Pharmacie Galénique Industrielle (APGI), the Academy of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology, Japan (APSTJ), the Controlled Release Society (CRS), and the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan. The Congress is also endorsed by the Dutch Medicines Evaluation Board (MEB).

The co-chairs forming the PSWC2007 Organising Committee, the Scientific Advisory Board, and FIP’s Board of Pharmaceutical Sciences invite you to Amsterdam to participate in this third Pharmaceutical Sciences World Congress, PSWC2007. Take this opportunity to meet your colleagues at the pinnacle event in pharmaceutical sciences in one of the most colourful cities in the world!

On behalf of the PSWC2007 co-chairs of the Organising Committee,

Daan J. A. Crommelin, Ph.D.
Chair of the Organising Committee
