Better Science, Better Health
“Better Science, Better Health” was established by Vital Transformation to facilitate international collaboration in new clinical regulatory pathways, sources of evidence, and harnessing real world data to improve the access of needed new medicines by patients.
“Better Science, Better Health” provides a unique opportunity for international thought leaders to engage directly in these initiatives around the world, while also bringing new relevant voices into the process.
“Better Science, Better Health” has three core areas of focus:
- Harnessing real world evidence for better decision-making and create better patient outcomes
- Implementing new development pathways and evidence generation to improve access to needed new therapies for patients
- Developing best practices, successes, and opportunities for the integration of patient data and analytics to identify new medicines
