Several SPEAC experts joined the BeCOME Conference at Les Pensières Center for Global Health in Annecy, France from June 11 – 13, 2023.
BeCOME, which stands for Beyond COVID Monitoring Excellence, was initiated to create a sustainable forum where experts in Pharmacovigilance and Pharmacoepidemiology from key stakeholders (industry, public health, regulators, academics) can collectively discuss and develop innovations for post-marketing monitoring of benefits and risk of vaccines, leveraging the learnings and keeping the momentum of progress made in response to the COVID emergency.
The three-day conference engaged experts in workshops and discussions on background incidence rates, safety studies, pregnancy surveillance, vaccine benefits, safety signals, digital solutions, and studies in low- and middle income countries (LMICs), among other topics.
