This includes, but is not limited to, content development; overall account and project management; participant recruitment, planning and contracting; expense accounting functions; development of meeting materials; venue research and contracting; program coordination and logistics; travel and accommodations; onsite support; and meeting summary and reporting.
Peter Culpepper, CFO and COO, of Provectus said, "The 11th Brazilian Melanoma Conference is a gathering of melanoma experts from all around Brazil, a country where melanoma survival rates are lower than average, that offers us a unique opportunity to explore the possibilities of extending our melanoma research into Brazil.
PharmaHealthLabs’ personnel are highly experienced in melanoma and in managing the kind of meeting we need to have with the leading investigators in the country, and we are confident that their efforts will help us quickly and clearly understand the potential of Brazil in our PV-10 development program."
Jeff Meehan, PharmaHealthLabs Lead Oncology Advisor, said, "PharmaHealthLabs is very happy to be working with Provectus in assessing the potential of Brazil as a place for further research into PV-10 in melanoma. Putting together this kind of high level meeting on an international level requires agility as well as experience, and we believe that Provectus will be highly pleased with the quality of the information they receive."
