2021 ACCP Annual Meeting
The 2021 Virtual Annual Meeting of the American College of Clinical Pharmacology® was a big success! ACCP is proud to have offered its 2nd virtual meeting to continue to deliver on it's Mission & Vision to provide exceptional educational events to the clinical pharmacology community.
A global audience heard presentations from 85 international Faculty Speakers who participated in two Pre-meeting Workshops, the Plenary Session, Regulatory Session and 14 Symposia on a series of topics ranging from research and drug development to patient care. The Invited Keynote Elaine Abrams, MD gave an engaging presentation on "The Critical Role of Clinical Pharmacology to End the HIV Epidemic in Children". Additionally, 115 scientific posters were presented from authors from around the world. The Attendee Survey indicated 91% of respondents were pleased with the overall educational content and had a positive experience with the virtual platform and 99% would recommend the ACCP Annual Meeting to colleagues.
A heartfelt thanks goes out to the Course Chairs and Faculty Speakers, as well as the 2021 Annual Meeting Program Committee, for planning an outstanding meeting. Additionally, the ACCP CE Compliance Subcommittee is to be thanked for working diligently to review and provide feedback to ensure presentations of the highest quality and the ACCP Honors & Awards Committee is to be congratulated for their efforts in selecting outstanding ACCP Recognition Award Winners. As always, we are deeply grateful to our Sponsors for their ongoing support.
