UNAIR NEWS – The Faculty of Pharmacy (FF) Universitas Airlangga (UNAIR) collaborated with the Asian Conference on Clinical Pharmacy to hold the 24th Asian Conference on Clinical Pharmacy. The conference took place at The Stone Hotel Legian, Bali. Themed "Beyond the Limit: Advancements and Innovation of Asian Clinical Pharmacy," the conference lasted four days, from Thursday to Sunday, July 24-27, 2025.

The theme was chosen to reflect the technological advancements and innovations in clinical pharmacy services in Asia, which continue to develop year after year. This cutting-edge technology also benefits education and research. The conference attracted 776 conference participants and 244 workshop participants from 24 countries across Asia, Australia, America, and Europe.

UNAIR Rector, Prof. Dr. Muhammad Madyan, S.E., M.Si., M.Fin., as the host, welcomed the conference participants. In his remarks, Prof. Madyan explained that this event could strengthen collaboration in the field of clinical pharmacy in this increasingly rapid era.

"This conference is a prestigious event for the professional world of pharmacy. It can be a platform for exchanging ideas, sharing innovations, and collaborating," he said.

A total of 55 international speakers participated in the conference. They came from the United States, Australia, China, the Philippines, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Canada, South Korea, Portugal, Qatar, Singapore, and Thailand.

Means of Creating Real Solutions
In an increasingly fast-paced world, technology in the healthcare sector, particularly the role of clinical pharmacy, is becoming increasingly crucial. "The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and big data in clinical pharmacy, the trend towards personalized therapy, and the challenge of antimicrobial resistance are issues we must face together," said Prof. Madyan.

Starting in 1997 in Alabama, United States, this international conference is an annual event in the field of clinical pharmacy. This is the third time that the Faculty of Pharmacy at UNAIR has hosted the event.

As the host of this conference, UNAIR is committed to continuously promoting innovation, research, and practices in clinical pharmacy for the welfare of society.

"We hope that this forum will not only be a means of exchanging ideas, but also create real solutions amidst global health challenges, strengthen professional relations between clinical pharmacy professions, and enhance the role of pharmacy in the health system," concluded the UNAIR Rector.
