2-Day OSPS Workshop in BOSTON October 2018

esqLABS is running a two-day hands-on PK-Sim® & MoBi® workshop on integrating PBPK with QSP on Wednesday 3rd and Thursday 4th of October at the OFICIO Fenway Meeting Room in Boston, MA.

PK-Sim® & MoBi® workshop on integrating PBPK with QSP for Biologics

 

esqLABS is running a two-day hands-on PK-Sim® & MoBi® workshop on integrating PBPK with QSP on Wednesday and Thursday 3rd and 4th of October at the OFICIO Fenway Meeting Room in Boston, MA. The workshop covers the concepts and application of combining PK-Sim, MoBi and R to build your very own digital platforms for the prediction of clinical trial outcomes by leveraging physiological and mechanistic knowledge to translate early in-vitro and preclinical outcomes to the clinic. During hands-on exercises you will learn how to:

  • Build a PBPK model in PK-Sim and compare to observed data
  • Integrate mechanism-based pharmacodynamics in MoBi
  • Conduct parameter identifications in PK-Sim and MoBi
  •  Conduct population simulations in PK-Sim and MoBi
  •  Scale PB-QSP models across species
  •  Simulate and analyze your PB-QSP model in R

This workshop will be held by the consultants and scientists from esqlabs GmbH with extensive experience in the use of PK-Sim® & MoBi® in all application areas.

While the workshop does not require any prior experience with PK-Sim® & MoBi®, most topics will be of interest even for advanced users.

REGISTRATION

For more information and registration, please visit EventBrite.

The workshop is currently restricted to 15 participants.
