WHO:The American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS) is a professional, scientific society of approximately 12,000 members employed in industry, academia, government and other research institutes worldwide. Founded in 1986, AAPS provides a dynamic international forum for the exchange of knowledge among scientists to enhance their contributions to public health. AAPS offers timely scientific programs, on-going education, information resources, opportunities for networking, and professional development.

WHAT:AAPS is pleased to present the complimentary eLearning Webinar on Transgenic Mouse Models in Drug Metabolism and Transport (Session II). This module is organized by the AAPS Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Drug Metabolism Section. This Webinar will be conducted by Xinxin Ding, Ph.D.

WHY:The purpose of this free Webinar is to educate participants on how animal models allow direct examination of the role that a specific metabolizing enzyme or transporter plays in the disposition, clearance, efficacy, and toxicity of a particular drug or xenobiotic in a whole body system. Participants will gain understanding of the powerful insight these models provide into potential clinical outcomes associated with specific new therapeutics.

WHEN: October 27, 2009 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM EDT CONTACT:For additional information about the workshop, and to register, visit http://www.aapspharmaceutica.com/webinars/transgenicmodels2.
