Drug Development is a one-day class delivering an overview of the discovery, development, and regulatory processes for bringing a new drug to market. Participants will learn about the business and scientific decisions involved in moving a product forward from basic research into preclinical and clinical trials, as well as a detailed consideration of the regulatory requirements of clinical development. Post-approval commercial considerations and risk management will also be discussed.

Instructor: Simon J. Tulloch, MD
Dr. Tulloch has more than 20 years of pharmaceutical and biotech experience in clinical development, R&D management, and business roles, both in Europe and the USA. For the last three years he has been the Chief Medical Officer at InfaCare Inc, a privately funded biotech company in the Philadelphia area. Prior to InfaCare, Dr. Tulloch spent ten years at Shire Pharmaceuticals Inc. He moved to the USA to establish a U.S. research and development organization- Shire Pharmaceutical Development Inc. Dr. Tulloch built the organization to 70 people, from all areas of drug development, and successfully conducted the development and NDA approval of Adderall XR, now a billion dollar drug, for Shire. During that time his organization also developed and got NDA approvals for Fosrenol (Shire's first global NCE) and Equetro, as well as providing CMC, preclinical, and marketing medical support to all of Shire's U.S. products. Latterly, he assumed the role of head of the global CNS Business Unit as Shire underwent significant management change in its transition to a big pharmaceutical company.
Prior to his time at Shire, Dr. Tulloch spent eight years with Johnson and Johnson companies, including five years as clinical research director for R.W. Johnson PRI's European R&D facility in Zurich, Switzerland, working on multiple projects in various therapeutic areas and stages of development.
