The workshop will demonstrate how NONMEM® and PDx-Pop®
can be used to solve practical examples. Attendees will
learn from didactic sessions and hands-on practical experience.
The workshop will also demonstrate the role of population
analysis in drug development and the regulatory process.
As a departure from our traditional workshop format, each workshop
participant will be required to bring a laptop with licensed copies
of NONMEM version VI and PDx-Pop version 2.0 software installed.
This will allow participants to work through the problems with the
instructors, develop thorough understanding of the software, and
establish confidence in applying the software to population
pharmacokinetic problems.
This workshop is targeted toward individuals interested in learning
how to solve population pharmacokinetic problems. We have designed
the workshop in a general manner in order to serve a wide background
of participants.
