Registration is now open: May 9 - Pharmacometrics Network Benelux Spring Meeting
We are delighted to invite you to the 14th Pharmacometrics Network Benelux (PNB) Meeting. The PNB initiative aims to connect pharmacometricians in Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg. The intention is to create an informal platform for the pharmacometrics community (in industry, academia, hospital pharmacies as well as regulatory bodies), with the goal to promote professional and scientific awareness and interactions. The 2019 spring meeting will be held Thursday May 9th 2019 in Niel, Belgium. There is no registration fee, but registration is required for participation.
