McKinseyQuarterlyWhy drugs fall short in large -stage trialsThe third and last stage of clinical testing is meant to confirm that medications under development are safe and effective.

This has been a very important year for EPSA, launching new projects and developing new strategic co-operations. The Information Letter is a project that wishes to be a platform of information, gathering updated information about general pharmaceutical concerns.

Your opinion and feedback is for us extremely important. We would like to know how enthusiastic you are about this publication and how can we help you in you academic and professional development. By this we re-enforce that any proposal for the next EPSA Information Letter is more than welcome.
