Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe

The Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe (PCNE) was established in 1994  and it became an official association (under Dutch law) in 2004.
Pharmaceutical Care is the pharmacist's contribution to the care of individuals, in order to optimize medicines use and improve health outcomes.

8th PCNE Working Symposium 2022 , Lisbon, Portugal / hybrid

Navigating research on pharmaceutical care

11-12 February 2022


Welcome 

The 8th PCNE Working Symposium 2022 will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, with a hybrid format, and reunite international pharmacists under the title ‘Navigating research on pharmaceutical care’. Evocating the Portuguese discoveries from the 15th and 16th centuries, when numerous territories and maritime routes were recorded as a result of the intensive maritime exploration, we will be exploring the vast potential for new pharmaceutical services to yield greater results.

Given the unpredictability of these times, we are prepared to deliver the symposium in a hybrid format, in which you will be able to participate in lectures, the oral communications session and the closing session remotely.

We do, however, expect you will be able to join us in-person in Lisbon for a more immersive experience!

Pre-symposium

We will be organizing a Pre-Symposium with 1 workshop and 2 expert courses as a pre-event to the Symposium. The Pre-Symposium will focus on matters relevant to researchers and PhD students in different levels of needs and expectations.

See the tab 'Pre-Symposium' for more information.

 

The Symposium

With 2 keynote lectures and 4 different workshops to choose from, participants will be able to catch up on PCNE work streams and assess new avenues for our research network. We will propose the following topics, from which participants will be able to select 2:

  •   WS1. How to validate a questionnaire (Isabelle Arnet, Christiane Eickhoff)
  •   WS2. The future of Pharmaceutical Care and pharmacy related outcomes research in Europe (Mitja Kos, Kurt Hersberger)
  •   WS3. PCNE DRP-classification: a case of classification or validation cases? (Tommy Westerlund, Ina Richling, Nejc Horvat)
  •   WS4. Grow in guideline implementation: from maturity matrix to indicators (Martina Teichert, Kenji Fujita)

This year, we will launch the Foppe van Mil Memorial Lecture, which is dedicated to the memory of our colleague and friend, whose lifelong dedication on fostering pharmaceutical care research was such an inspiration for many of us.

During the symposium, participants will be able to learn and discuss about new avenues for pharmaceutical care research, but also spend quality time together. Coffee-breaks and meals are great opportunities to network, review or get to know new friends.
