Opportunity to Meet with PRA Experts
RALEIGH, North Carolina, August 23, 2010 - PRA International, a leading Clinical Research Organization, will exhibit
our cardiology expertise and experience at the European Society of
Cardiology's (ESC) annual conference in Stockholm, Sweden from 28 August to 1
September 2010.
At PRA booth C18:62, attendees can schedule meetings with our leading
expert in cardiovascular (CV) disease, Dr. Michael Kirchengast, Vice
President and Head of Scientific Affairs at PRA, to learn how PRA can support
drug development projects.
In addition to his ESC attendance, Dr. Kirchengast is also hosting a CV
audio conference on 24 August 2010 at 11:30 am (EDT). Those wishing to attend
this session can learn key concepts and explore new strategies for preventing
some of the expensive failures that pharmaceutical companies experience
during late-stage development.
Dr. Kirchengast has 30 years of experience in CV research and
development, including interactions with multiple authorities. His wide range
of development experience encompasses antiarrhythmics, antithrombotics,
antihypertensives, antihyperlipidemics, heart failure therapeutics, and
vascularly active and cardioprotective drugs.
Additional PRA representatives, including Dr. Margit Banagl, Executive
Director of Medical Affairs, will be at ESC to provide information on the
full breadth of PRA's services.
