  2. Pharmatopia is a collection of interactive web-based simulations created in collaboration with educators and industry from across the globe. Pharmatopia's principle objective is to create a continuum of engaging problem-based, pharmacy learning/training simulations, relevant to schools, universities and industry. During this session we shall examine how the Pharmatopia project uses the same basic simulation concepts and systems to teach a range of subjects within pharmacy, pharmaceutical science and biotechnology.
