SUMMARY:FREE webinar: Speed\, Quality & Cost – Why You Should be Conducting Your Clinical Trials in Australia
DESCRIPTION:Speed\, Quality & Cost \nWhy You Should be Conducting Your Clinical Trials in Australia\nTuesday\, November 13\, 2018 | 4pm EST (NA) / 9pm GMT (UK) / 8am AEDT (Australia) \n  \nOver the last 20 years\, Australia has grown to become a destination of choice for the conduct of early phase clinical trials. Rapid ethics approval and a simple notification to the Therapeutic Goods Administrations (TGA) means that from submission to FPFD it will only take on average 6 weeks. Coupled with the attractive R&D tax incentive program offered by the Australian Government\, this swift pathway to study data can then be used to support an IND or IMPD application allowing companies to speed up their drug development process. Join PCI Clinical Services and their partners for this educational webinar to learn more and understand: \n– The specific considerations required for Phase I trial design in Australia \n– Australia’s R&D tax incentive program and eligibility when conducting your trials in Australia \n– The specific requirements for importing\, manufacturing\, compounding and labelling your product\nfor Australian clinical studies. \n  \nOur Speakers: \nCraig Rogers – SVP Asia Pacific PCI Clinical Services \nCameron Johnson – CEO Nucleus Networks \nSimone Quin- Partner Prime Financial \n  \nIn partnership with xtalks \nFor more information visit: http://pciservices.com \n  \n  \nClick here to view PCI’s MediWales member profile

SUMMARY:Hodge Annual Meeting Public Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Professor Urs Meyer\, from the University of Zurich\, will deliver a Public Lecture at the Hadyn Ellis Building as part of the Hodge Annual Public Meeting\, on Thursday 29 November 2018. \nHosted by Cardiff University’s Neuroscience and Mental Health Research Institute (NMHRI) and System Immunity Research Institute\, registration for the lecture will commence at 4.30pm with a wine reception\, followed by the Public Lecture with Professor Meyer at 5.30-6.30pm. \nMicroglia and Schizophrenia: Scientific Hype or Therapeutic Hope?\nProfessor Meyer’s main research interests are centred upon the question of how early environmental adversities such as prenatal infection\, pubertal stress and nutritional imbalances can influence brain development and shape the risk of long term brain abnormalities. He will discuss the idea that microglial abnormalities might play a role in the aetiology and pathophysiology of schizophrenia\, highlighting current controversies and prospects of pre-clinical and clinical research on microglia in schizophrenia. \nThe event will bring together key figures from the Hodge Centre for Neuropsychiatric Immunology\, which was launched in 2016 with a one million pound investment from the Hodge Foundation. The purpose of the Centre is to unite experts in exploring how the brain’s immune system impacts brain conditions such as schizophrenia\, epilepsy and Alzheimer’s disease. \n“It is with great pleasure that we welcome Professor Meyer to Cardiff University to celebrate our second annual meeting of the Hodge Centre. These meetings are a critical part of the Centre’s activities.” said Professor Jeremy Hall\, Director and Research Theme Lead at NMHRI. \nThis year we will also be combining the meeting with an educational session bringing together researchers across neuroscience and immunology to help bridge the gaps between these exciting fields. We are delighted to welcome Professor Meyer who is a leader in the neuro-immunology field with particular interest in how early life events affect immune function in the brain. We will also be welcoming a number of exciting new recruits to the Hodge Centre to Cardiff as well as hearing from a number of our funded projects. I am sure it will be a great day.” \nRegister for free here via Eventbrite.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Understanding the Medical Devices Market in Japan
DESCRIPTION:Japan’s medical devices and healthcare market offer business opportunities for innovative British companies. It is the second largest medical devices market after the US with a large number of hospitals. It offers universal access and national healthcare services\, and the world’s highest life expectancies. Premium pricing is also available for healthcare innovations. \nWith a market size of £19.8 billion in 2014\, Japan’s medical devices market heavily relies on imports\, especially for therapeutic devices\, which consist of nearly 50% of the total domestic sales volume. The UK is ranked as the 8th largest exporter of medical devices to Japan. Since the revision of the Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Act in 2014\, regulations on medical devices have been modified to allow faster and easier access to the Japanese medical devices market. Japan’s approval process is now roughly equivalent to the US. \nJapan offers a great opportunity for UK companies involved in the development of innovative medtech and medical device\, especially for therapeutic devices. The top 5 main therapeutic device categories are: \n1) artificial internal organ apparatus and assist device;\n2) operating equipment and supplies;\n3) ophthalmic goods;\n4) diagnostic imaging system; and\n5) therapeutic and surgical equipment. \nThe Japanese government is leading on the following 5 key focused area: Surgical robot\, artificial organ/ tissues\, minimum invasive surgery\, diagnostic imaging\, home medical treatment equipment. \nAbout the speaker\nMr. Taiki Ishikura\, Director & Chief Business Officer of Japan Organisation for Medical Device Development Inc (JOMDD). \nJOMDD is the first-ever medical device incubator in Japan\, sourcing early-stage technologies from overseas and commercialise them globally. \nJOMDD has strong ties with Japanese universities\, medium-sized companies and governments with a nationwide network having a strategic alliance with the largest MD association\, Japan Medical Association. \nFor more information: https://jomdd.com/en/ \n  \nREGISTER HERE
