Les participant(e)s auront l’occasion de découvrir les dernières évolutions en matière de sciences séparatives, des aspects fondamentaux aux applications les plus diverses, des couplages les plus performants aux techniques les plus prometteuses. SEP 2017 sera pour vous aussi un endroit de rencontre, de  partage d’expériences diverses, qu’elles soient industrielles, académiques ou autres.

Ce cours a pour but de présenter les notions générales de toxicologie et de pharmacologie, notamment le devenir des substances dans l’organisme et leur interaction avec celui-ci. Différents mécanismes de toxicité seront présentés. Le cours est illustré par des exemples provenant des différentes disciplines de la toxicologie. L’aspect analytique sera également abordé, en particulier pour mentionner les liens avec les autres cours proposés par le ccCTA. 

The 2nd German Pharm-Tox Summit is a joint meeting of the 83rd Annual Meeting of the German Society for Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology (DGPT) and the 19th Annual Meeting of the Association of Clinical Pharmacology (VKliPha). For further information see flyer.

This course provides a broad overview on the organ systems of interest as well as standard tests to investigate drug effects on these systems. Each organ system will be introduced before detailed information on the safety pharmacology aspects is provided. Integration of Safety Pharmacology findings in an overall risk assessment will be demonstrated. Concordance data and case reports will provide the evidence how meaningful pre-clinical data are for the clinical situation.

Alongside the scientific programme with internationally renowned speakers (see below), the meeting also offers career development sessions, as well as numerous workshops and discussion rounds, a large industry exhibition and 100+ posters presented by promising young scientists. Discover the latest, most exciting findings in the field, from Molecular and Cellular Biosciences to Proteomics and Physiology, or enjoy the Satellite Workshop on opportunities in academic and non-academic careers. Scientists who are at the stage to start their own research group and who are interested in doing so in a Swiss research institution are welcome to enter the contest "Tomorrow's PI", where the best future projects from diverse disciplines are being showcased.

Drug development and production underlies laws and regulations to secure protection of human, test animals and the environment. Guidelines provide advice to applicants on specific scientific issues reflecting a harmonized EU approach to fulfil the pharmaceutical legislation. This course will provide participants with a comprehensive overview of the required in vitro and in vivo nonclinical studies, strategies for the development and risk assessment of new pharmaceuticals. For further information see course brochure.

Our progressive understanding of mechanisms involved in acute and chronic liver diseases has led to important improvements in the current management of these diseases. Basic research in the field of liver- development, cancer, viral infections, fibrosis, and regeneration is important to warrant further insight into the molecular and cellular processes implicated in order to develop novel detection methods and therapies. This meeting will bring together international scientists working in the field of liver disease. The meeting will provide a unique opportunity to get updated on and discuss new studies in the field of basic liver research.
