I aim to listen to all parties involved in medicines development: including patients, pharma, and academia. We need to listen to one another, paying close attention one another's needs and ambitions in order to achieve goals that are beneficial to all of us and to society at large.

Co-creation is where it is at. In the past, the lion share of investment in R&D was wasted (85%: redundant, inconclusive, duplicated or unpublished) and extraordinary numbers of trials failed or were incomplete (97%). What was missing? Patient collaboration, for starters. By co-creating, we can identify what patients actually need, value and want. Let's help meet public health needs by sharing our expertise.

Consulting with patients is something relatively new and radical. To turn it into something fruitful, creative, positive and productive, we will all need to communicate clearly and considerately.

Travaux en coursPatient Engagement & Communication Officer
From 1997 until 2007, I worked for 10 years at Alzheimer Europe, a non-governmental organisation aiming to provide a voice to people with dementia and their carers. Alzheimer Europe is an umbrella organisation having around 30 member organisations all around Europe. As the Communications officer of this NGO, I was used to work in close collaboration with our member organisations and encourage them to become involved organisations. I also organised the annual conferences and, at the beginning, all invited speakers were only made up of international eminent experts. In 1999, we decided to invite a patient during the plenary session. It was the most interesting session I attended. Since this day, I am convinced of the importance of patient’s voice. Tis experience had a real impact on the way we conducted the projects after because the priorities of patients were included. Communicate with all stakeholders is my professional way of working!
