On 12 November 2019, the EU-funded MULTI-ACT project – in which EBC is heavily involved – will host its first project-dedicated event in Brussels, Belgium. The project, which began in May 2018, aims to increase the impact of health research on people with brain diseases by creating and implementing a new model allowing for the effective cooperation of all relevant stakeholders.

After one and a half years of work, a number of work packages have completed their work and will have plenty to present on the day. The focus of the event will be the following:

• A new governance criterion allowing effective cooperation of all relevant stakeholders in multi-stakeholder research initiatives and transformative governance;

• Innovative guidelines for effective patient engagement across the health research and innovation path;

• A new tool for the assessment of the research impact across different dimensions including excellence, efficacy, social, economic and patient reported dimension and to better tie the research results to the objectives of the initiative.

To learn more about the project, please visit the MULTI-ACT website and social media channels.

An agenda & registration page will follow soon. For logistical details, please see below:
