International Clinical Trials Symposium, 1999

 


 

The first International Clinical Trials Symposium, organised by the NHMRC Clinical Trials Centre, was held in Sydney on 15–17 September 1999. It was a stimulating fusion of invited addresses, contributed posters, debates, forums, workshops and exhibitions, attended by over 600 people.

The Centre plans to hold similar meetings in the future: the next symposium will be held in 2002.

Summaries and abstracts of the symposium presentations can be accessed here through the list of sessions or the author index.

A highlight of the symposium was the special forums on research strategies and priorities in various clinical areas.

The Clinical Trials Centre appreciates the generosity of all the sponsors of the symposium, in particular the support of the major sponsor, the Commonwealth Department of Health and Aged Care.
