July 2012 — The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has recently appointed Enrica Alteri as the new Head of Safety and Efficacy of Medicines in the Human Medicines Development and Evaluation Unit. Dr Alteri is a medical doctor, whose career to date has focused on the safety of medicines in the pharmaceutical industry, most recently as Head of Risk Management and Epidemiology at Merck-Serono in Geneva.
Her appointment coincides with the implementation of the new pharmacovigilance legislation, which creates the added responsibility of enforcing stricter pharmacovigilance in addition to the task of overseeing evaluations of the applications for the authorization of human medicines.
As of July of this year, EU regulations will include stricter monitoring, identification and assessment of adverse events caused by pharmaceutical products. This is expected to bring about greater transparency within the EU system and ultimately help oversee drug safety. Dr. Alteri’s commitment to drug safety throughout her career made her a strong candidate for the position.
