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 />
