Dr. Steven Weisman, Ph.D. Head of Global Healthcare Products at Innovative Science Solutions (Morristown, NJ), will be speaking at the ABA’s 2015 Life Sciences Legal Summit being held on March 4, 2015 at Genentech in South San Francisco.

Dr. Weisman, along with Donald F. (Fritz) Zimmer (King and Spaulding) and Krista L. Cosner, Senior Counsel, Medivation, Inc. will form a panel that will be informative to both in-house and outside counsel. The panel will be speaking about the evaluation of evidence for signal detection for pharmacovigilance purposes (and possible label revisions) and for causation assessments in courts of law.

This session will assist in-house counsel in advising pharmacovigilance and regulatory departments on the downstream legal significance of the description of evidence in various regulatory and company documents. The session will also assist outside counsel in obtaining a greater appreciation of the pharmacovigilance process within companies in meeting their regulatory obligations. The panel will also discuss how companies can proactively monitor the safety and effectiveness of their products to develop systems that can reduce liability claims.
