Computer systems used in the pharmaceutical
industry must be validated. This means that "documented evidence
must be produced to show that the system does what it was specified to
do". In other words, the FDA mandates that software quality assurance
activities take place. What does all this mean and how can you get
involved? Bruce Fieggen has been managing projects in this field
for the last two years and presented a layman's version of what this industry
is all about and the trends forecasting its growth.
