Sub-Working Group 1.1
Manufacturing of Synthetic Drugs and their Precursors
Sub-Working Group 1.1, Manufacturing of Synthetic Drugs and their Precursors focuses on strategies to address the initial steps in the drug supply process. This includes the manufacture of synthetic drugs, such as clandestine labs, as well as their precursor chemicals and forensic laboratory testing. Experts will present on their research and current projects to connect participants with the tools and resources necessary to stop the flow of synthetics.
