ESDPPP – European Society for Developmental Perinatal and Paediatric Pharmacology
ESDPPP is a voluntary, non-profit association representing the interests of paediatric pharmacologists around the world.
Paediatric Pharmacology
Based in Leuven, Belgium, ESDPPP promotes research in developmental perinatal and paediatric pharmacology and offers a forum for dialogue between pharmacologists, clinicians, and scientists interested in the effect of medicines on the developing fetus, infant, and child.
25 years of ESDPPP
The ESDPPP celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2013. This milestone provides an important opportunity to celebrate ESDPPP’s achievements to date and to describe our future aspirations and ambitions on behalf of millions of paediatric patients worldwide.
Our aim
We aim to improve medicines for children and advance research and global access to paediatric medicines. We also advocate politically for the continued development of safe, evidence-based medications for children. In this respect, ESDPPP works closely with European Medicines Agency (EMA), International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (IUPHAR) and the World Health Organization (WHO).
Congresses
Meeting our collegues is very important for our society. We enjoyed a wonderful congress in Leuven, Belgium, in 2017 and are looking forward to our congress in Basel in 2019. The next congress will be held in Liverpool (2021). We are welcoming your ideas and suggestions for these events.
