Advancing Drug Discovery And Treatment Options With Patients And Citizen Science

In the realm of healthcare, patients are now more involved in their own care, with easy access to information through the internet and the use of new technologies that empower them to generate and share data. Patients are not only the beneficiaries of scientific knowledge but are creators of scientific knowledge. As a result, pharma companies are recognizing the potential benefits of engaging with highly motivated patients and patient organizations. This approach not only reduces costs but also enhances the success of clinical trials, especially for rare diseases.

This webinar delves into the advantages and disadvantages of patient-centric and patient-led trials, how technology can help bring patient equity, and what the future holds for patient partnerships to advance scientific and drug discovery.
