Francesco, how about you? What is your pharmacovigilance career story?
7:46
My story of pharmacovigilance started when I was a student in medicine.
7:50
And I was a bit lost because medicine is quite wide.
7:54
Every one of us, when we're in medical school, dream about being a surgeon, for example.
8:00
And I don't like to be a surgeon because of the long, for example, time in the operatory block.
8:07
So I understand quite quickly that I want to go into some more research or public health field.
8:14
And pharmacovigilance arrived when during studying clinics, I started to understand that for every disease, there was the last bullet point that say drug-induced disease.
