A group of Pfizer executives met with the president of the Thessaloniki Medical Association Nikos Nitsas at the association’s offices in view of – as they informed him – the opening and staffing the company’s new global department in Thessaloniki, which will be active in the safety of medicines around the world with a view to public health, as announced by the medical association.
The new department
As the company’s executives pointed out to the president of the Thessaloniki Medical Association, which represents 9,000 doctors of all specialties, “in this new department the Safety Risk Leads will be responsible for the analysis and understanding of safety data of one or more Pfizer drugs worldwide. These data will come from scientific journals, adverse event reports, clinical and non-clinical studies (invitro & in vivo) and epidemiological studies. Their responsibility will also be to collaborate and interact with regulatory authorities around the world on drug safety issues.”
