In this Webinar they are focusing on the importance of translational research referred to “bench-to-bedside” by showcasing two successful models for bridging the gap between preclinical and clinical research.
Paediatric Oncologist Professor Gilles Vassal from Institute Gustave Roussy, distinguished member of the ERNPaedCan, will present the ACCELERATE, an international multistakeholder organization to improve and accelerate new drug development for children and adolescent with cancer.
Joanne Lee from Newcastle University will talk about ACT concept (Advisory Committees for Therapeutics) and introduce the ACT toolkit. She will also provide background about the TACT Neuromuscular model and talk about the progress that has been made so far in establishing similar models with some ERNs.
This webinar is designed to inspire and motivate researchers from different ERNs to try to create similar models that will help them to move faster towards clinical trial readiness after obtaining promising preclinical data.
This webinar is part of the Educational Webinar Series from ERICA’s WP5 Translation and Innovation.
