10th annual conference on Paediatric Clinical Trials, 16th - 17th March 2016, London

Registration Now Live for SMi's 10th annual Paediatric Clinical Trials Conference.

The 10th annual conference on Paediatric Clinical Trials will return to London on the 16th to the 17th of March 2016.

Many treatments of today are the result of past clinical trials. The need for improving strategies in conducting paediatric clinical trials has never been greater as pharmaceutical industries want to expand their research even if researchers and scientists cannot always afford the costs linked to trials in children.

This event will look at the paediatric therapeutic developments, directives and procedures which have been put in place to protect children taking part in clinical trials.
