Communicate Medical and Scientific Information in a Regulated, Compliant-Driven, and Patient-Centered Environment
MEDICAL AFFAIRS STRATEGIC SUMMIT
FOR MORE INFORMATION WEST.EXL-MASS.COM
Dear Colleague,
We’ve come a long way since the inaugural Medical Affairs Executive Forum,
Medical Science Liaison Best Practices, and Investigator-Initiated Trials event
started about ten years ago. Over the years, our conferences have adapted to
the regulatory, compliance, and scientific communication needs of industry.
However, we know that change within a medical affairs department is a
common occurrence. As we continue to navigate this highly regulated and
dynamic environment, it is of the utmost importance to discover new ways to
communicate medical and scientific information through a dynamic medical
affairs team, medical science liaisons, and investigator-initiated trials.
The Medical Affairs Strategic Summit West serves as your educational
platform to learn new ideas and connect with your medical affairs, MSL, and
clinical research peers, while exploring new strategies to improve your team’s
performance through three tracks:
n THE 5TH MEDICAL AFFAIRS EXECUTIVE FORUM focuses on developing
a compliant team that disseminates medical and scientific communication
to all internal and external stakeholders
n THE 13TH MEASURING AND OPTIMIZING MSL PRACTICE explores the
impact of leveraging an MSLs value through key relationships with KOL
and thought leaders while maintaining internal and external responsibilities
n THE 18TH INVESTIGATOR-INITIATED TRIALS SUMMIT examines the need
to align research and business functions while overcoming regulatory
compliance and funding hurdles to successfully manage your global and
local IIT portfolio
As the roles of medical affairs, MSLs, and investigator-initiated trials
continue to evolve, let us be your guide to the very best in innovative ideas
and practices.
Warmest Regards,
Scott Grossman,Senior Conference Director, Medical Affairs Strategic Summit Series
