We are please to announce the webinar schedule for the Virtual PharmaSUG 2020! Our free webinar series kicks off on Tuesday, June 30, 2020 with our first 6 presentations, and will continue on Tuesdays and Thursdays from July 9 through July 23. All of the presentations have been recorded, so the recording will be played first, followed by a period of live Q&A with the authors. The remainder of the schedule is still being finalized, so check back here for updates!
Register for the session(s) that you wish to attend; the webinar link will be provided to all who have registered 1-2 days before each session. You're welcome to stay for the entire session, or come and go as you please. Neither the presentations nor the recordings will be stored by PharmaSUG after the scheduled session- they will only be available at the scheduled times.
Times shown represent the U.S. Eastern Time Zone.
