Bulletin interne de l'Institut Pasteur
The aim of the Giens Workshops is to serve as a think tank on topical issues in the field of pharmacology and clinical research, facilitating therapeutic innovation and the evaluation of health technologies.
The Institut Pasteur signed a partnership agreement with the Giens Workshops in 2016. This partnership gives the Institut Pasteur a say in the choice of scientific issues discussed and the experts invited to participate. It also gives the Institut Pasteur the role of hosting the Giens Workshops feedback and discussion day, an event consisting of several round table discussions that each year brings together leading academics, industry figures and institutional representatives to reflect on an average of six different topics.
Invitation to the 2019 Giens Workshops feedback and discussion day
The Giens Workshops are offering Institut Pasteur staff free tickets to attend this discussion day, which will be held on Wednesday March 20 from 9.15am to 4.30pm in the Émile Duclaux lecture hall.
The event is free but prior registration is required (lunch not included). Anyone interested should sign up by emailing Lydie Texier: lydie.texier@pasteur.
This year the sessions will explore:
scientific topics (how genomics can contribute to the medicine of the future, artificial intelligence, and vaccination);
regulatory issues (article 51 of the French Law on Social Security Funding, early access to drugs under the expanded access system, and new medical regulation of medical devices).
