Throwback: Liverpool Conference, June 2023

Our societies 19th Conference, hosted by our president Mark Turner in Liverpool, was a success and wonderful experience - especially to meet in-person again and to have the possibility to gain knowledge on-site after two predominant pandemic years.

Slides, posters and all abstracts will be provided in our "Members Only" area - have a look!

COVID-19

IUPHAR is responding to the current crisis by coordinating pharmacological resources worldwide. Although most of the current research is done in adults, we believe in part it may be relevant for pediatric pharmacologists as well.

Paediatric Pharmacology

Based in Ghent, 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.

35 years of ESDPPP

The ESDPPP celebrated its 35th anniversary in 2023. 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 Liverpool, UK, in June 2022 and are looking forward to our next congress, which will be held in Prague (2023). We are welcoming your ideas and suggestions for these events.
