Patient Centricity in Neuro degenerative diseases

11 July 11am EDT (NA) / 4pm BST (UK) / 5pm CEST (EU-Central) Duration: 60 min Watch Here
Webinar overview

Neurodegenerative Disorders are one of the most burdensome conditions on the planet not only for the patients, but also caregivers, health care providers, and the health care systems. Over the decades there has been a major focus to drive the science and research in the field, leading to better and more precise treatment options for the patients.

Nonetheless, there is a stronger need to incorporate patients' and carers' voices to inform each stage of value creation, from scientific discovery to providing access to new treatment options. This webinar brings experienced voices across the pharma industry and patient organizations to put a spotlight on where we stand on patient-centric approaches in clinical research for neurodegenerative disorders, and where we need to do more.

Who should attend

This webinar is designed for, drug developers, healthcare professionals, patient advocacy groups, and anyone interested in the advancement of neurodegenerative disease treatments.
