Ask a Question Exhibitor Standard Contract Clause

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Scientific Program Planning Committee and PDA Europe, we are proud to present the 2021 PDA Annex 1 Conference to take place on 8-9 June 2021!

The long-awaited draft of the revised Annex 1 was released for discussion last year and now the final revision is anticipated later this year. The document’s focus and content has changed significantly, and the industry is eager to see how these changes will result in new requirements, inspection expectations, and overall process control strategies. Clarification on the intent of new and existing requirements is anticipated.

This conference will cover the impact on the industry and on manufactures. Local authorities and industry speakers representing medicines and vaccines manufacturers, as well as equipment and instrumentation suppliers, will present their views on the revised Annex 1 and the modifications it induces. Sufficient time has been allocated to discuss how to address the new requirements and be proactive in getting ready to comply with the new regulation.

The conference will feature experts from all over the world and will provide plenty of opportunity for interaction between attendees, the speakers, and the program committee members during live Q&A sessions.

We look forward to you joining us in June!

Sincerely,

The Chairs

Opportunities and Limitations for Using Simulators in Virtual Reality to Help Meet New Annex 1 Regulatory Requirements

Moderator:
Falk Klar, PDA Europe 
Speakers:
Sebastian Scheler, Innerspace,

Dieter Bachmann, Janssen J&J

Annex 1 serves as a guideline for sterile medicinal products, in the new version high requirements for personnel and their behavior are expected. Simulators in virtual reality seem to be very suitable for meeting these requirements since mission-critical behavior can be trained effectively, and precise behavior measurement and standardized success control are possible.
