The Increasing Role of Pharmacometrics in Drug Development, Upcoming Webinar Hosted by Xtalks


https://www.prweb.com/

Xtalks Life Science Webinars

In recent years, pharmacometrics has emerged as an invaluable modeling and simulation tool that helps to de-risk and accelerate the drug development process.

Join Felix Boakye-Agyeman, MD PhD and Rakesh Gollen, PhD, both Directors of Pharmacokinetics at Synteract in a live session on Monday, September 30, 2019 at 11am EDT (4pm BST/UK) to learn about the importance of applications of pharmacometrics tools throughout the drug development pipeline.

The cost of a new drug from discovery to launch is approaching $3 billion with the underlying time for development reaching up to 12 years. Given the costly and lengthy process, scientific and regulatory leaders in the pharmaceutical industry need to leverage all available tools to get drugs approved quickly and efficiently, bringing safe and efficacious medications for human needs.

In recent years, pharmacometrics has emerged as an invaluable modeling and simulation tool that helps to de-risk and accelerate the drug development process. It facilitates the integration of preclinical/clinical development data and provides a scientifically based framework for designing a rationale dosage regimen and treatment optimization. There are several pharmacometrics techniques that can be elicited at various stages in the drug development pipeline to help make the approval process more efficient and get the most efficacious doses with increased safety for all patients, including special populations.

This webinar will be suitable for senior level managers and executives, plus scientists and researchers working within clinical affairs, R&D, clinical operations, regulatory affairs and medical affairs.

New Guide For Obtaining Accurate Car Insurance Quotes Online


News Image

“Obtaining accurate car insurance quotes can be easy. All you have to do is to provide real, accurate data when you fil an online questionnaire”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that presents several tips for drivers that want more accurate car insurance quotes.

For more info and free quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/tips-getting-accurate-car-insurance-quotes/

Drivers are recommended to check for car insurance every time a major event happens in his life. Events like getting married, moving to a new place, or adding a new driver to the insurance policy can influence the insurance rates paid by a policyholder. The best way for drivers to get car insurance quotes is to get them online. In order to get accurate online insurance quotes, drivers should follow these tips:


  • Drivers should first determine their coverage needs. Besides purchasing the minimum coverage required by each state’s law, every driver has different needs for their insurance policy. Drivers that own old regular vehicles should consider dropping full coverage when their car will worth less than ten premium rates. Drivers that own new cars, should consider adding new car replacement insurance or gap coverage to their policy in order to protect their vehicles full value in case something bad happens.
  • Determine the available budget for insurance. Drivers should not opt for high coverage levels and options they don’t really need if they can’t really afford to pay the price of the premiums. To see what they can really afford, drivers can use online quotes to simulate different insurance plans with different coverage levels and options. By doing so, policyholders will know how to properly acquire an insurance plan without emptying their wallet.
  • Make sure to keep documents nearby. Online questionnaires will ask the policyholder to provide them with data about the car make, model, sub-model, year of production, safety devices, engine, and other relevant data. Drivers can remember some of these data, but it is important to have these documents nearby when filing an online quote. Sending wrong data to the insurance companies can result in a lower estimate for the actual cash value.
  • Policyholders should be honest with their driving history. Drivers can lie in order to get better insurance rates, but many insurance companies will do careful research on each driver’s history that wants a policy from them. Insurance companies will then proceed into penalizing the lying driver, by either increasing their insurance rates or by denying their insurance application.
  • Drivers should check for discounts. Insurance companies will ask certain things that can grant the policyholder several discounts. Drivers can qualify for these discounts if they have low mileage, clean driving record, no claims, or they graduated a defensive driving course, and so on. Insurance companies offer numerous types of discounts, so it’s important for drivers to mention everything in the questionnaires.

Collabspace Logo

Collabspace Cloud Records Management

“With even more layers of security in Microsoft Azure, the government can finally access a cloud content management system to meet records digitization deadlines and we are focused in our pursuit to become the only cloud FedRAMP-High-certified SaaS solution for records management.”

Collabware, a leading provider of content management and compliance software, today announced the availability of Collabspace on Microsoft Azure Government allowing government entities and partners to implement multi-platform information management in Azure’s dedicated government-only cloud environment.

In accordance with regimented procurement guidelines for U.S. federal, state, tribal and local government, organizations can now accelerate the process of acquiring certified software needed to modernize and digitize all records and management systems in compliance with the U.S. National Archives (NARA) universal electronic records management requirements (UERM) and presidential mandates such as M-12-18 and M-19-21. With direct purchase accessible through General Service Agreement (GSA) Schedule 36, government contracts have been pre-negotiated for order placement and project initialization.

Azure Government offers the most compliance certifications of any cloud provider, including the strict criteria of the Department of Defense (DoD CC SRG) and the demanding requirements of the US Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP High). This allows government organizations to benefit from advanced security, cost savings and pre-configured implementation tools to automate and speed deployment.

“We’ve been working with Collabspace since its initial development on Microsoft Azure and we’re pleased to see Collabware approved for use on Azure Government,” said Greg Myers, VP of Microsoft Federal. “We look forward to continuing our work with Collabware to offer the government and the public their trusted records management solutions.”
