    Good Afternoon RAPS Community,

    The following is a posting from my International Society for Pharmacoepidemiology colleague Christopher Rentsch, PhD Assistant Professor of Epidemiology at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. I took a Pharmacoepidemiology in the Era of COVID-19 short course earlier this year. Their online platform is amazing. It was easy to navigate, and interact with faculty and students.

    "The Electronic Health Records (EHR) Research Group at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine are pleased to announce that registration is now open for its long standing short courses: Professional Certificate in Pharmacoepidemiology & Pharmacovigilance and Real-World Evidence in Pharmacoepidemiology. Details about this year's courses are provided below.

    Develop your skills in pharmacoepidemiology, pharmacovigilance, and real-world evidence with our modular short courses. Learn key concepts in epidemiology, statistics, and health economics from experts in a range of sectors, including academia, regulatory, and industry.
