Target Group

This seminar is aimed at those responsible in the areas of quality assurance and quality control in the pharmaceutical industry who use AI applications in their areas or decide on their use.

Objectives

In this seminar, you will learn about the possibilities of using artificial intelligence in the areas of quality assurance and quality control in the pharmaceutical Industry.

You will learn
  • How GPT can be used for daily work with GMP documents
  • How processes can be automated with the help of AI and digital tools
  • Which prompting techniques lead to good results
  • How AI can be used in pharmaceutical quality control
  • What support AI applications can provide for batch release
You will also receive the latest information from ISPE’s new GAMP AI Good Practice Guide.
Now that the use of artificial intelligence in medical diagnostics has already found its way into the field of imaging procedures, the use of AI applications in the GxP environment is expanding rapidly. Specifically defined chatbots can be used, for example, to search for information on websites. Specially trained GPTs provide support in handling GMP-regulated documents such as qualification/validation documents, stability protocols or trend Reports.
