Louise Fish & Daniel Lewi
In this episode of Let’s Talk Rare, as we commemorate World Rare Disease Day, Georgie and Owen are joined by Louise Fish and Dan Lewi to discuss all aspects surrounding rare diseases, from key challenges patients face in getting access to life-saving medicines, the clinical trial burden, EU pharmaceutical strategy and more.
The topics covered include: Why genetic screening of new-borns in the UK lags behind the EU, funding rare disease research, clinical trial burden, patient registries, patient experience data and its relevance, revamping data sharing with families, and how pharma can involve patients earlier.
