The Liverpool course

The ‘Liverpool course’ is a generic educational programme delivered by the centre to support better prescribing for HIV, COVID-19 and other therapeutic areas. We cover the principles which range from basic concepts of pharmacology in health and disease, to use of modelling and simulation to inform optimal dosing.

We apply these principles to practice – case based, real-life complex clinical discussions for which there is sometimes no right answer, yet a lot of important learning for clinical decision-making.

These educational events aim to:

• Reinforce and develop the understanding of key clinical pharmacology concepts among junior colleagues in the fields of infectious diseases and hepatology (clinicians, pharmacists, academics, industry colleagues etc.)
• Improve clinical pharmacology education and thereby the quality of patient care
• Educate healthcare professionals on how to use the Liverpool drug interaction resources in their clinical practice
• Increase knowledge and confidence among healthcare professionals through practical examples of the Liverpool drug interactions resources and discussion of case studies tailored to the local needs.
