Medical Administration Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies how drugs are reviewed, approved, and evaluated, from the standpoint of regulatory science.

AboutAbout the lab
Drug evaluation, considered by government and university together.
The Medical Administration Lab studies administrative issues related to the evaluation of drugs from the standpoint of regulatory science.
It was established as a cooperative graduate program between the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) and Chiba University.
Its main research topics are efficient drug development for approval review, and the effects of "ethnic differences," in which the optimal dosage and other aspects of a drug differ between populations.
Another aim is to train people who can think for themselves, and make evidence-based proposals, on how drugs should be developed and reviewed for approval.
