WORKSHOP 8
Sponsored by EFPIA in collaboration with Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI)
Connecting new science, research and healthcare needs: is the contract between society and pharmaceutical industry up for renewal?
Science is changing! New ways of collaborating in scientific research are revolutionising results and outcomes. New findings are leading to a reclassification of diseases which is consequently changing the way patients are treated and healthcare is delivered. However, are healthcare systems flexible and versatile enough to adapt to new scientific findings? Is society ready for a new science paradigm? Is the contract between society and pharmaceutical industry up for renewal?
