Dear IMPRI Well-wisher,
Greetings!
We hope you are safe and well.
This week, we invite you to join us for another string of thought-provoking #WebPolicyTalks, including a discussion on 'regional futures', and a pertinent session on ethical challenges in clinical trials.
The newsletter, as always, will apprise you of these upcoming events, IMPRI's recent publications, and videos of #WebPolicyTalks in case you missed them.
We hope to see you soon at one of our #WebPolicyTalks!
Wishing you the best for the week ahead,
Anshula Mehta, Senior Assistant Director, IMPRI
