This month’s interview comes from Milan, Italy, from long-term member, colleague and friend Dr. Dario Cattaneo (who wins my vote for best dancer at the wonderful congress dinner at the St Laurence Cathedral in Rotterdam).  Dario shares his experiences in the worlds of TDM for immunosuppressant and anti-infective drugs, and how recently these worlds have started to intertwine.   Dario Cattaneo Clinical Pharmacologist  Laboratory of Pharmacokinetics, Clinical Pharmacology Unit Luigi Sacco University Hospital, Milan, Italy   Photo: Dario and colleagues, IATDMCT Congress dinner, Rotterdam, 13/10/15

After this year’s congress in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, we all went home with some gems to put into practice at work – whether in the clinic, new research ideas or problem solving to better serve patients and clients. We also learned some things about each other: some members have famous children, others are really really great dancers.   This month we collected members’ responses to the question “What did you take home with you from the recent congress?”. If you would like to send a response, please Contact the Communications Committee.

With all eyes on the IATDMCT Congess, Tokyo in 2017, we remember the First Congress of the Japanese Society for Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (1st CJSTDM, May 13th 1984) and the First International Congress of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (1st ICTDM, October 20th 1988).  Dr. Tanaka shares his experiences that led to the beginnings of the Japanese Society, and these two important congresses.

This month we welcome Loralie Langman as the IATDMCT president for 2015-2017. We asked Loralie and our past and future presidents what they consider the greatest benefit of being members of the association. This is an extension of the interviews conducted in the Compass December 2010 issue.
