Dr Karl-Heinz Bauer, Boehringer Ingelheim
Today, a laboratory manager working in the pharmaceutical industry or in a contract/service laboratory has to fulfill a large number of business management tasks in addition to the GMP and FDA requirements. This includes the collection, calculation & interpretation of key figures, which requires knowledge that is not, or only very superficially, covered in scientific training or the course of university studies in natural sciences.
This webinar is designed for all those who deal with key figures in the analytical laboratory or want to get an overview on the efficient practical implementation. Those are for example persons working in
- Incoming goods control,
- Control of finished drug products,
- Analytical development,
- Chemical and food industry,
- Contract laboratories.
This webinar also addresses Qualified Person (QPs), Heads of Quality Control, laboratory managers and persons responsible for the QA and QC of internal or external control laboratories.
