9. <strong>EUFEPS</strong> Networks<br />

Scope <strong>and</strong> aim<br />

This Network was initiated by the <strong>EUFEPS</strong> Committee on Industrial Research Relations<br />

(CIRR) <strong>and</strong> established to develop <strong>and</strong> implement educational programmes to meet the<br />

training needs of scientists working in the field of safety sciences, primarily, <strong>and</strong> to provide<br />

input for the New Safe <strong>and</strong> Innovative Medicines initiatives, all to help out of the attrition<br />

dilemma. To achieve this, it actively engaged with stakeholders in enhancing <strong>and</strong> coordinating<br />

a multi-disciplinary, holistic approach in the development of new medicines through<br />

education <strong>and</strong> continuous training of scientists, capable of contributing to the innovative <strong>and</strong><br />

continual development of new medicines. Brainstorm <strong>and</strong> planning workshops have been<br />

organised, <strong>and</strong> many are actively involved in the current IMI Project on safety sciences education<br />

<strong>and</strong> training for medicines research <strong>and</strong> development.<br />

Scope <strong>and</strong> aim<br />

This Network is developing a forum for academic, industrial <strong>and</strong> regulatory professionals in<br />

the various scientific fields underpinning Quality by Design (QbD) <strong>and</strong> Process Analytical<br />

Technology (PAT), sharing <strong>and</strong> discussing findings in cutting edge research <strong>and</strong> establishing<br />

effective <strong>and</strong> innovative collaboration, the EuPAT conference series being a new platform.<br />

It also contributes to education <strong>and</strong> training in the field as well as to foster h<strong>and</strong>s-on implementation<br />

of systems approaches <strong>and</strong> emerging technology in pharmaceutical production<br />

processes. Promoting <strong>and</strong> supporting collaborative research projects established from interacademic,<br />

academic-industrial <strong>and</strong> public-private partnerships is an additional important objective,<br />

ultimately leading to innovation <strong>and</strong> better process underst<strong>and</strong>ing.<br />
