Symposium A1
The emerging discipline of Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP): combining PKPD and Systems Biology

Monday 22 May 2017
15:00-18:00
Stockholmsmässan : K1

Introduction:

This session brings together a world-class group of scientists who will give a range of presentations that focus on the interfacing of quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) and Systems Biology (SB) with the aim to understand the interactions between drug action and disease processes. QSP constitutes the scientific basis for the design of novel disease treatments which modify the disease process.

Co-Chair(s): Piet van der Graaf (the Netherlands) and Don Mager (USA)
