Advancing Method Validation: A Step Forward with BfR

At Pepper, we are committed to advancing the professionalization of method validation. We recently had the privilege of providing specialized training to a member of the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) on validation principles. This session was delivered by our expert, Andrea Rivero Arze, PhD (Ecotoxicologist), and marks a significant step in our long-term collaboration.

We appreciate BfR’s trust in us as a partner in this journey. This training serves as a foundation for future cooperation, supporting efforts to enhance expertise in method validation.

At Pepper, we believe that validation should be a professional competency, and we are dedicated to equipping experts with the knowledge they need. As part of this commitment, we now offer on-demand training for professionals looking to integrate validation into their careers.

If you are interested in advancing your expertise in validation, feel free to reach out to us.
