What is a pharmaceutical scientist?
In March 2015, FIP’s Board of Pharmaceutical Sciences adopted the following definition of “pharmaceutical scientist”:A pharmaceutical scientist is a qualified expert in aspects of the science and technology of medical products. This includes but is not limited to the discovery, development, manufacture, regulation, and utilisation of medical products – embracing how medicines work, how safe and effective products are brought to the market, their impact on the body and their effect on the prevention and treatment of disease.
