| Advanced Post Graduate Diploma in Clinical Research and Pharmacovigilance |
Clinical trials are
conducted on a smaller population under controlled conditions. But once the
drug is marketed it is used by millions of people across the globe.
Pharmacovigilance plays the main role in developing a better knowledge of
the benefits and risks of the drugs that are approved for marketing.
Pharmacovigilance is mainly concerned with identifying, validating,
quantifying, evaluating and minimizing the adverse drug reactions and
adverse effects of drugs thereby improving their safety profile. Pharmacovigilance
is related to safety profile of drugs whereas clinical research includes all
areas of health issues and problems in a larger perspective. Pharmacovigilance
experts are required to identify all these safety aspects.
Pharmacovigilance is still at the beginning stage in India. There
is an urgent need to understand the importance and the impact of this field on
the life cycle of the drug in the trial or already in market.
The Advanced Post
Graduate Diploma in Clinical Research and Pharmacovigilance at James Lind Institute is an industry oriented
program, providing the industry with a skilled pharmacovigilance professionals.
This program helps in
cultivating the pharmacovigilance practice in daily life and trains candidates
about the ethical and regulatory compliance required. It also provides
knowledge about enhancing the clinical trial safety and post
market surveillance. The objective of the course is to provide a complete
knowledge of the clinical trials and Pharmacovigilance. The program is
divided into two parts: first part provides the complete understanding to
the clinical research field and the later part focuses on the processes
involved in pharmacovigilance. The program is available on an online platform
and can be completed in 6-8 months. Duration :- 6-8

Training Center / Institute Name : James Lind Institute |
About the Institute :
James Lind Institute is a premier institute providing clinical research training to students and working professionals who intend to build a career in this growing sector of the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. Educational programs at JLI are technology driven and industry specific, with particular emphasis on the evolving scientific concepts in the pharmaceutical industry such as clinical research, personalized medicine, pharmacogenomics, pharmacoeconomics, outcomes research, and translational medicine in a broader perspective.
James Lind Institute is a result of a direct educational endeavor brought forth by experts within the clinical research industry. Our mission is to help interdisciplinary research take strong foundation, especially in India, and provide relevant education as the first most crucial step towards gaining that potential.
Academic Approach
We at James Lind Institute believe in traditional academics while also recognizing the need for the industry to step in and provide necessary industry-specific education and training to complement professional development of aspirants who want to join the clinical research field. Modern day interdisciplinary research can only thrive with knowledge sharing efforts from both the academia and the industry.
All the courses at the James Lind Institute are delivered with a state of the art learning management system that provides students the necessary latitude of self-paced learning along with a responsible attitude towards professional development.
At JLI, we take pride in the excellence of education that we impart.

This concept and revolution created by the silicon world is well recognized throughout the globe and crosses all barriers of geography, availability of time, and financial constraints. The faculty at JLI is always busy answering queries and delivering study lectures to students.
There in an “Online campus tutoring center (OCTC)” where students interact with their fellow students, seniors and junior students apart from the faculty.
Journal clubs are conducted at regular intervals on topics much debated in the industry and of vital importance to the research sectors concerned.
Collaboration with the Clinical Research Industry
James Lind Institute is a collaborative effort of experts and stakeholders within the clinical research industry. The faculty members at JLI are senior clinical research professionals who bring in the best of their experiences to help students to establish a career in the field. This leads to the best pragmatic approach towards clinical research education.
James Lind Institute is honored to be advised by industry stalwarts in the development of the curriculum for students. The advisory board members at JLI are regularly consulted for a review of courses taught to students.

Professional Development
At James Lind Institute a “Student Success Team (SST)” is in charge of the professional development of the students. The SST contributes towards holistic professional development through knowledge exchange, continuous improvement, dynamic team work and networking.
Networking in the professional arena is increasingly being recognized around the globe for keeping in touch with people in similar or different industries at all hierarchies. These days such professional networking is helping people in a number of ways from striking business deals to getting job offers.
JLI has built a networking platform for its students. This is in the form of a “Personal Webpage” which helps students put all their profile on the web. Students can include all their information that they want to share with the world on this webpage along with their certificates and CV. This webpage stays with the student even after a student completes his/her course at JLI and can update it regularly. This webpage is managed by JLI's IT department and has been optimized for greater visibility of our alumni. The SST further facilitates this information to reach prospective employers as well.
Industry Reviewed Curriculum
The curriculum at the James Lind Institute has been designed and reviewed by experienced clinical research professionals. The curriculum for all JLI clinical research courses has been fully optimized to suit fresher's who would like to set foot in the clinical research industry as well as industry professionals who intend to further advance their knowledge and skills to move up the corporate ladder quicker. The curricula not only cover all the fundamental and core areas of the subjects but have also been designed in a way so that all students get the maximum benefit out of the valuable time that they spend learning online.

Clinical and Translational Science Rediscovered
From the time of James Lind who is regarded as the father of modern day clinical trials, the field of drug discovery has come a long way. It has experienced its share of the dark ages moving on to the twentieth century which witnessed landmark discoveries and finally into the twenty first century when interdisciplinary research is being rediscovered which was seemingly lost due to an overspecialization of the enterprise. The pharma/biotech industry is entering a new era with a high demand for innovation. Patents for most of the blockbuster (high revenue generating) drugs are expiring and nichebuster (personalized or targeted) drugs are evolving. Overall the impetus on innovative molecules and novel drug targets is sure to increase the number of drugs in the pipeline and so is the clinical research industry.
Clinical research is research conducted with human subjects and is a vital component of the whole process of discovery of products for human use. Such products include drugs, devices, biologics, cosmetics, therapeutic procedures, alternative medicines and therapies. Clinical research as seen in the above figure stands at the center of the drug development enterprise bridging basic research to health of the people. This section of drug discovery is conducted in various phases and is most time consuming and expensive. A conservative estimate of around $800 million and 8-12 years is usual for a drug to reach from laboratory bench to a patient’s bedside.
Clinical research for a new therapeutic entity passes through various phases and each phase goes through a process of study design, obtaining funding, finding volunteers, collecting and processing data, interpretation of the results and finally reporting. It is often said that all these processes are one-fifth structure (science) and four-fifth process (management).(Francis D et al. 2007)
Clinical trials require a robust management process and this is the sector that is in huge demand for professionals who are accomplished in both the basics of science and proficient in the best of management skills.
James Lind Institute’s professional courses are in tune with this necessity of the market and produce professionals who understand the applicability of scientific knowledge along with best management practices.
