Dear Colleagues,
The pharmacy profession in this part of the world is undergoing substantial transformation towards greater
automation, robotics, specialization and importantly upgradation of quality services. For pharmacy to keep
in pace with the rest of the world it is most critical to realign, reengineer and reinvent our approach in order
to be an integral part of the healthcare fraternity. Therefore, it is of paramount importance that the focus
should be on enhancing and upgrading competency and professionalism, facilitating staff development,
introducing new range of specialized services apart, benchmarking and pursuing global collaboration.
DUPHAT has evolved from its nascent years in the mid-90s to a full-fledged comprehensive and
internationally recognized pharmaceutical conference. The International patrons and professionals have
contributed significantly to DUPHAT’s stature and presence in the global scenario. The regional associations
and experts have always participated in DUPHAT conferences with increasing enthusiasm. The constant
support of Dubai Health Authority has significantly helped DUPHAT emerge as the premier conference
in the region. DUPHAT 2019 shall feature distinguished pharmacy professionals from all over the world.
Speakers from USA, UK, Australia, Europe, Canada, Africa, Japan and the Middle East shall present their
latest perspectives on pharmaceutical science in the intensive 3–day program with a wide variety of topics
encompassing pharmacy practice, pharmaceutical science, quality and safety of medicines, medication
management, drug recalls and shortages, governance, education, continuing professional development
and best practices.
DUPHAT scientific program comprises Pharmacy Workshops, Managerial skills workshop, parallel scientific
presentations, professional faculty and student poster session, student poster competition and student
short oral presentation competitions. The latest technical information from the pharmaceutical industry
will be highlighted in the Pharmaceutical Technologies Exhibition which hosts multinational pharmaceutical
companies from the region. As in the previous editions, schools from Dubai are participating with healthcare
exhibits and cultural activities.
DUPHAT is a conference that aspires to be the most sought after global event for pharmacists, professionals
from the pharmaceutical-industry, marketing professionals, researchers, academics, scientists, clinicians,
students and other healthcare professionals.
Looking forward for your presence at DUPHAT 2019,
Dr. Ali Al Sayed Hussain
MS, Ph.D. DUPHAT Chairman

about the ‘importance of the pharmacy leaders, looking out for their
pharma staff, their department staff and making sure we support
them’. I would be happy to come back if I was offered an invitation.
