6th Good Clinical Practice Conference & Course October 9, 2010

Dear colleagues,

I am pleased to welcome you to Szeged to take part in the 6th Good Clinical Practice Course organized by the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Szeged, and the Hungarian Clinical Trial Management Society, with the support of the Department of Reproductive Health and Research of the World Health Organization in the Fall of 2010.

Doctors, researchers and clinical investigators are welcomed mainly from Eastern-Central Europe, in order to share the experience and knowledge of the WHO accumulated in the field of GCP. Besides the basic course, we discuss some special topics of this field which occur among these countries. Following our tradition on the first day of the course, we selected an interesting topic: The Effects of Global Environmental Factors on Reproductive Health.

The second day will be dedicated to the basic knowledge of the GCP, mainly for the newcomers. The last day of the Course 3 round-table discussions will be organized: Recruitment and Advertisement,

Emerging Countries, Vaccination Trials.

The 6th GCP Course will take place in Szeged. We would like to introduce you the host city, for those who will attend the first time: Szeged is a vibrant University city with a rich cultural life. It is also famous for exhibitions, ballet and opera performances, and many of beautiful buildings in secessionist style. Besides, the Hungarian traditional food, such as fish-soup and Pick salami, is worth trying.

We look forward to welcome you to Szeged, Hungary on 10-12 October, 2010.
