Certara is contributing to 11 presentations and poster sessions at this year’s conference
PRINCETON, NJ – Mar. 5, 2015 – Certara®, the global biosimulation technology-enabled drug development and drug safety consulting company, today announced that its Simcyp® and Pharsight® consultants will contribute to 11 seminars and poster sessions at the American Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics (ASCPT) 2015 Annual Meeting to be held March 3-7 at the Hyatt Regency in New Orleans, LA.
“Biosimulation and PK/PD modeling are playing an increasingly central role in the drug development and regulatory approval processes. There is thirst for knowledge in this area, whether it be to determine the most appropriate dose for a Phase I trial, learn how the absorption of a particular drug may change as subjects age, or identify possible drug-drug interactions. The ASCPT Annual Meeting provides an excellent venue to share this type of knowledge and our latest thinking and we are delighted to be able to contribute,” said Certara Senior Vice President of R&D and Chief Scientific Officer Amin Rostami, Pharm.D., Ph.D.
Certara’s involvement in the 2015 ASCPT sessions is outlined below:
