Online Market Approval course

Obtaining market approval is an important step in the development of a new biomedical product. In this course, you’ll learn how to find and interpret the relevant regulatory guidelines that will steer you through the development process. Real-world case studies, including the development of a gene therapy product and a fictitious mRNA-based vaccine, are presented to familiarize you with issues that can arise during development, as well as how to assess an Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier (IMPD).

Online Intellectual Property course

In this online learning-by-doing course you will learn the pros and cons of patent protection and how to protect your biomedical invention in a timely and optimally manner. In addition, you will learn the interplay between patent law and market exclusivity for medicinal products granted by regulatory agencies such as the FDA and EMA.

Blended Clinical Development course

The 3-part Clinical Development course introduces the Question-Based Clinical Development approach to define the most optimal development pathway for new medical interventions (online course with exam) and offers participants a unique opportunity to work on extensive teaching cases based on real R&D projects in interdisciplinary groups (on-campus course). Finally, a mentor coaches participants on how to write a ready-to-submit clinical trial application (on-campus extended course). Seating is limited (max 25 participants per course) to ensure the highest quality and enable intensive interactions.
