At the PharMetrX Network Meeting 9/9/23 in Berlin we extensively discussed AI/ML in Pharmacometrics, and Future-mindedness - The benefits to an individual/organisation. My favorite was, shaping the future will largely depend on individual "Response Ability" NOT Responsibility!

Acknowledgment to our other postdoctoral modeller @fwojara. Despite an identical visa application to @aida_kawuma, his was declined and he could not travel, for no discernable reason. This passport inequity can put a cloud over international meetings @paimadhu

Clinical pharmacology research can deliver safe and effective treatment of TB and reduce the risk of drug resistance. This year's World TB day theme "YES WE CAN END TB", re-awakens the need for more research. #AtTheEquatorUG @IDIMakerere @CatrionaWaitt @RitahNakijoba @AidaKawuma

Informative sytematic reviews can be very informative but NOT all need to be coupled to metaanalyses. A very interesting ppt by Dr. Khalid at the ongoing RCT training at the IUIU.
