The tutorial is part of the Drug Information Association’s (DIA) Pharmacovigilance and Risk Management conference to be held at the Sheraton National Hotel in Arlington. The tutorial will be offered on Sunday, January 22, 2012, 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM. The tutorial will focus on application of data mining techniques to safety surveillance and signal detection and the critical role of clinical case and case series assessment. “The increased focus on the safety of drugs and biologics and volume of safety data creates a need for objective quantitative approaches to supplement the medical review of individual case safety reports”, says Dr. Van Doren. “This course is designed to be a practical, hands-on tutorial so participants can easily apply the principles of signal detection and data mining in their own practices”.

BioSoteria will also exhibit during the conference, Monday, January 23 - Thursday, January 25, 2012, 8:00 AM– 5:00 PM. The Sheraton National Hotel located at 900 South Orme Street, Arlington, VA.
