    International Society for Cultural and Activity Research
    Sep 9, 2008 - Sep 17, 2008,
    University of California San Diego, California United States

    ISCAR 2008 is a celebration of our cultural and historical roots and the potential for understanding the human condition and for mediating the challenges we face in creating the conditions for a peaceful and prosperous global community. Thus, we select the butterfly as the congress logo as it symbolizes the magnificence and fragility of the world we seek to balance with our needs for respect, dignity, and harmony within and across social identities, cultures, languages, and national boundaries. ISCAR resists orthodoxy and celebrates variations of opinion, the old and the new, and what’s yet to come. In particular, it creates the space for theorists, researchers and practitioners, whose work is rooted in Cultural Historical and Activity Theory tradition and other resonant traditions, to explore the limits and the potentials of human understanding.


    ISCAR achieves its mission through the interarticulation of the questions members ask, the methods they employ and the practice they design on both theoretical and empirical planes. Theory frames the meaning of data and data instantiates the meaning of theory in a constant dialectic cycle that links to the understanding of social and cultural practice. At all levels ISCAR represents diversities that are interoperative, interdependent, and deeply grounded in our historical roots and the ability to perceive and act, building and transforming from these roots. In line with this vision, ISCAR 2008 foregrounds 3 thematic areas that reach across these principles and their interrelationships.

    CBI's Premier Forum on Electronic Submissions
    Sep 9, 2008 - Sep 10, 2008,
    Sheraton Premiere Hotel at Tyson's Corner Vienna, Virginia United States

    FDA now requires that all electronic submissions be in eCTD format. Although there’s no mandate that requires regulatory submissions be electronic, the widespread movement towards eCTD is tied directly to FDA preference.

    Like the movement towards the electronic clinical trial, the motivation behind electronic submissions is the desire to improve and expedite drug development. Although the process is more efficient for sponsors and regulatory bodies alike, eSubmissions are complex and there’s often confusion surrounding the execution of an electronic submission.

    Although a large portion of the industry is still novice when it comes to eSubmissions, several large and small companies already consider themselves eCTD experts. No matter your situation, CBI’s Electronic Submissions Conference has been designed to be a valuable and thought-provoking event. Newcomers obtain proven strategies for eCTD implementation and all attendees receive valuable insight surrounding the complexities of content development, lifecycle management and transitioning to RPS.
