7th FIP Pharmaceutical Sciences World Congress (PSWC2020) is organized by International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) and will be held from May 22 - 27, 2020 at Montreal, Quebec, Canada. To network with leading experts from across the world, compare best practices and learn about the latest trends in pharmaceutical sciences, including the potential of information-based technologies, challenges and opportunities in global health, new collaborative models for stimulating innovation, and workforce development with interdisciplinary skills. The program is structured around four tracks covering key challenges in the continuum of drug discovery, development and optimal use at the individual and population levels. Novel concepts From diseases to clinical candidates. Participants will explore new concepts in our understanding of disease mechanisms, both at the molecular level as well as systems biology levels, and discuss cutting edge approaches to best discover and design appropriate therapeutic modalities, from small molecules to biologics, cell-based therapies or gene-targeted approaches. Advanced strategies Meeting the challenges of optimal formulation design and manufacture. Participants will discuss how to meet the demands of individualized medicine and global health with cutting-edge formulation, bioanalytical technologies and manufacturing strategies. Effective translation From predictive experimental models to optimized clinical studies. Participants will discuss how scientific, technological and regulatory developments can increase success rate in clinical trials and help better individualize treatments, with new predictive experimental models and innovative methods for monitoring treatment exposure and response. Societal impact Developing context-appropriate solutions. Participants will learn how real-world evidence may contribute to address individual patient needs or important public health issues with the efficient implementation of therapeutic innovations in a context-appropriate manner in communities around the world. Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.

Module 5: Implant Prosthodontics & Occlusion for Implantology - Montreal 2020 is organized by The Institute for Dental Excellence (T.I.D.E.) and will be held from May 22 - 24, 2020 at Montreal, Quebec, Canada. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 21 CE Credits. Description: Module 5 The final treatment goals for implant dentistry is to replace or simulate the natural dentition with an artificial implant prosthesis. Our patients desire the benefits of teeth with esthetic, phonetics, masticatory function, comfort and contour. These cases, especially full mouth reconstructions, with implant retained prosthesis can be challenging and time consuming if it is not done properly. Program Exercises: • Pre-operative diagnostic record requirements • Step-by-step review of all prosthetic protocols from implant uncovering to final insertion of prosthesis • Open versus close tray impression techniques • Implant provisionalization options with fixed versus removable • Screw versus cement retained options • Implant protected occlusal schemes for single tooth to full mouth fixed and removable implant retained prosthesis • Management protocol for parafunctional habits • Implant prosthetic maintenance requirements • Management of implant prosthetic complications • Hands-on will include: Immediate temporization for implants, locator attachments, verification jigs, open/close tray impressions, and screw vs. cement retained Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
