  2. Regional meetings are held every three years including: Africa, EuroDURG, Gulf, and LatAM.
  3. The ISPE Annual Meeting (AM) is held in August/September each year, circulating between North America, Europe and Asia*. (formerly known as International Conference on Pharmacoepidemiology & Therapeutic Risk Management (ICPE)),
  4. An annual Asian Conference on Pharmacoepidemiology (ACPE), is usually held in October each year (except when the ISPE AM is held in Asia).
  5. Additional meetings can be requested via proposal to the ISPE Executive Committee. Proposals should be submitted on this template to info@pharmacoepi.org , two years in advance of the planned date.
