This document discusses the information available to patients once a medicine is authorized, including the product information and European Public Assessment Report (EPAR). It outlines the involvement of patients and consumers in reviewing elements of product information like package leaflets and EPAR summaries. The review process aims to ensure information is clear, understandable, and meets public needs. Patient and consumer organizations provide input on draft documents to assess language use, explanations, and identify unnecessary or missing information from a lay perspective. Their comments notably differ from other reviews and often lead to text changes or revisions for future documents.

Get Your Development Program Started on the Right FootBrook White, PMP
You think you have a potential pharmaceutical or biotechnology product based on animal or in vitro data—what is the next step? Two documents you need at an early stage are the Target Product Profile (TPP) which defines expectations for your potential medicine and an Integrated Product Development Plan (IPDP) which describes the activities required through approval of your marketing application.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Principles for the involvement in review process
• The purpose of the review is to ensure that the information is clear and understandable
for “lay people”, and that it fulfils the public’s needs in terms of information content
• All documents for review are confidential until they are made public; all experts must
have signed confidentiality undertaking
• The documents are exchanged by Eudralink e-mail
10. 9
What are EPAR summaries? (cont.)
• They do not replace product information (which includes the package leaflet)
• Full EPAR includes product information as well as CHMP Assessment Report
• Required by EU law to be published along with the full EPAR
12. 11
How EPAR summaries are
prepared
• Documents used for preparation
– Product information
– Adopted CHMP assessment reports
– Internal style guide
– Glossary of medical terms
13. 12
The review process
• Medical writers
• EMA product team
• Patient and consumer organisations (PCOs)
• Rapporteur and Co-Rapporteur (assessors)
