Summary

This three-day course gives you practical insight into pharmaceutical legislation in the EU. You will gain a clear overview and a deeper understanding of the EU’s legislative and regulatory framework that governs the development and authorisation of medicinal products.

You'll explore the roles and responsibilities of key stakeholders in the EU regulatory process and understand how institutions such as the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and National Competent Authorities (NCAs) work together.

We take a hands-on approach with group work, focusing on the practical steps of marketing authorisation applications and orphan drug designation applications in the EU. You will also learn how to comply with EU requirements related to pediatric investigation plans and pharmacovigilance, plus how to obtain scientific advice from EU authorities.

These insights will give you the confidence to navigate the regulatory framework governing medicinal product development in the EU.
