Clarification on the interpretation and implementation of the GXP DI guidance in the clinical trial setting
Applying risk-adapted approaches – how this worked for a researcher in neonatal trials.
The MHRA Laboratories Symposium will be held on 13 March 2019 at the Novotel in London. Also ... we have recently changed the contact email address for the laboratories inspection group from glp@mhra.gov.uk to gxplabs@mhra.gov.uk
