THERAPEUTIC DRUG MONITORING, PHENOTYPING AND GENOTYPING – THE BASES OF PERSONALIZED PHARMACOTHERAPY OUR MAIN TOPIC FOR THE 2015 CONFERENCE

PROPOSED CHANGES IN THE CURRENT CONFERENCE STRUCTURE In order to reach higher participation of the physicians in clinical practice we propose: Close cooperation with societies of Internal medicine, Cardiology, Hypertension, Pediatrics, Geriatrics, Neurology, Psychiatry, Nephrology, Gynecology etc. Every symposium and section will be introduced by the lecture concerning to pharmacotherapy, followed up TDM lectures (analytics, interpretation and clinical usefulness)

Can we do without drugs ? TDM in Drugs of Abuse (testing, monitoring, screening, random testing, reasonable suspicion testing, post accident testing, follow-up testing) with cooperation of police, prisoner duty The application of high resolution mass spectrometry to the screening of drugs and toxicants Is there a future for techniques not based on mass spectrometry for TDM and CT ? Analyses of toxicological events in different medical disciplines (cooperation's with clinicians, toxicologists, clinical pharmacologists and pharmacists) PROPOSED CHANGES IN THE CURRENT CONFERENCE STRUCTURE

PROPOSED CHANGES IN THE CURRENT REGISTRATION STRUCTURE To support the increase of the number of participants, we propose following changes in the registration structure : Implement „standalone“ workshops with interdisciplinary themes Selected lectures will be opened also for one-time registration to increase the number of participants from other medical societies Reduced registration fee for students for selected lectures.
