The First International Conference on Pharmaceutical Sciences

Since the advent of pharmaceutical science, there has been a tremendous growth in this field. Many novel drugs and products have been discovered and introduced into the market based on new researches and innovations in the field of pharmaceutical sciences. It’s our great honour to organise the first International Conference on Pharmaceutical Sciences (ICPS) which will be held in the Faculty of Pharmacy, Kufa University, Kufa, Al-Najaf, Iraq on April 2019.

The conference will bring academicians, postdocs and students from pharmaceutical sciences and related fields together and is believed to be an excellent setting to meet colleagues, discuss the current progress in the development of novel drugs, share the latest updates in the field of clinical pharmacy and pharmaceutical care systems. Moreover, recent advances, challenges, and breakthroughs as well as emerging and future trends of the converging fields and subfields of pharmacy sciences and medicine will be discussed.

Worldwide leaders in various aspects of pharmaceuticals sciences from Europe and the United States of America are invited to the conference and they will share their recent innovations in the respective field with all attendees. Moreover, the conference will provide a unique opportunity to engage in scientific collaboration with many universities in developed countries.
