Two Day Online Course: Human Factors and Usability Engineering in the Development of Drug Delivery Products Training (September 22-23, 2021)
Dublin, Aug. 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Human Factors and Usability Engineering in the Development of Drug Delivery Products Training Course" conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This two-day workshop has been designed specifically for product developers who want to incorporate human factors testing into their product development, or need to provide the regulators with specific usability data for their device to comply with the MDR. The format for the day will be interactive with the presenter sharing his experiences as a specialist with extensive knowledge and understanding of the requirements of the MDR, IEC 62366 and FDA Human Factors Guidance. There will be questions posed for discussion and delegates will work through some of the key aspects of performing a successful human factors study.
By attending this seminar you will:
Understand the requirements of IEC 62366 and FDA Human Factors Guidance
Know how to provide the regulators with specific usability data for your device
Understand human factors and the design process
Learn how to validate combination products
Consider human factors and risk
Discuss generic combination products - ANDAs and HF
Find out what HF data FDA require for biosimilars
