    Module II: Quality Risk Management & Knowledge Management
    14:15-17:00 CEST

    QRM has been an integral enabling element of the pharmaceutical quality system (PQS) since the adoption of ICH Q9. Despite it now being widely used, many uncertainties remain regarding QRM, for example, formal vs informal, enabler or, QS tool. This session will examine QRM in its role of an enabler of the PQS as outlined in ICH Q10. This will include the perspective of an experienced regulator with a long standing interest in QRM bolstered by multiple publications on the topic and from an industry expert who also is author of important publications on the topic. We anticipate that attendees at the session will leave with a deeper understanding of how QRM is most appropriately and effectively used within their organization’s Quality System.
