ICH Project

JPMA participates in the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) and contributes to faster and more efficient drug development through the development of harmonized guidelines. We also organize ICH Public Meetings and Guideline Workshops to share information and raise awareness.
