EFGCP & Avicenna Alliance Webinar
EFGCP & Avicenna Alliance Webinar on Modelling a Policy Framework for In Silico Medicine No matter how predictive or advanced a computer model is, it is commercially useless if it is not accepted by regulators in the assessment or reimbursement of healthcare technologies. This reality today represents one of the biggest barrier to the uptake of computer modelling and simulation in healthcare. In this webinar we will explore what regulatory and policy systems have been put in place in the US and what is needed in the EU. What would a comprehensive CM&D policy mean for HTA? Can our very concept of patient safety remain the same in a future full of computer modelling and simulation? Join us in answering these questions and more.

7th Feb Webinar on Practical Examples of CM&S in 21st Century Healthcare
The Avicenna Alliance actively promotes the need for computer modelling and simulation to be incorporated into healthcare to reduce costs, improve efficacy of products and redesign our notions of patient safety. What’s the best way to demonstrate this need? By showing examples of what has already been done! Join the Avicenna Alliance and the European Forum for Good Clinical Practice (EFGCP) on 07 February for Part 2 of our 3 Part Webinar series on computer modelling and simulation.
