Pharmacy Technicians with an Interest in Immunotherapy

The BOPA Specialist Advisory Group for Immunotherapy (IO SAG), has recently reviewed its membership and identified a gap in terms of pharmacy technician representation.

With the expanding roles of clinical pharmacy technicians in terms of clinical verification of SACT and easing of workforce pressures, we would be very keen to have technicians represented on the IO SAG.

We are very friendly group who meet on teams every 2 months. In addition, we are meeting face to face at this years’ conference and would invite any technicians to come along and see whether you would like to be involved.

Sat 12th October. Media Suite 1555-1630.

In addition, any new pharmacists interested in getting involved in our workstream are also welcome!

Meera and I co-chair the group, so please also contact us directly if you would like any further information.

Kind Regards
