Data from clinical trials is essential to know if a medicine is safe and effective to treat a health condition. However, conducting clinical trials is a complex task. François Houÿez @eurordis presents sobering statistics about trial recruitment challenges at #DIAEurope2025.

What can #scientometrics and #data mining of research outputs can tell us about #ageing research in the UK? @Cris_rosemberg presents at @HealthyAgeingUK conference “Adding Life to Years”. @TechnopolisGrp

Visualising biological processes is truly a magical part of science! I had the privilege to be part of this exciting global landscaping study for Wellcome. @TechnopolisGrp @wellcometrust

[Wellcome @wellcometrust]

Our understanding of biological life is dependent on our ability to visualise it.

That’s why bioimaging technologies are fundamental to discovery research.

But there are barriers to progress in the field, which we plan to help unblock.

AgeingFit Event 2023 in Lille was a great opportunity to discuss a positive future for ageing! In the panel discussion, on the back of many healthy ageing studies at Technopolis Group, I argued that ageing policies require a complex adaptive systems appro…https://t.co/N2584Wr7tF

The UK's Efficacy and Mechanism Evaluation programme addresses a crucial #funding gap in the #health #research landscape. If you are curious to know what it achieved over the past 10 years, read our recent peer-reviewed #impact report: https://t.co/RhqXYYBrfD

How did the UK research funding agency work, adapt and respond to the #COVID19 pandemic? The answer is in our recently published report! @UKRI_news @TechnopolisGrp

[Eszter Czibor @ECzibor]

Curious how experimentation can improve science funding – not just in theory but also in practice? 🎲🧪

My colleague @Thyra_deJongh discusses important issues on the needs and priorities for innovation for #RareDiseases at the @CeBIL_Center annual symposium. @cambridgelaw @TechnopolisGrp

[Peter Varnai @PVarnai]

Why not use "fire drill" type of stress testing to build stronger #research & #innovation #system? We know future global risks, we can use scenarios, we should develop new #policy. #COVID19 gave us a shock, are we ready to learn? @TechnopolisGrp @EUScienceInnov

[Times Higher Education @timeshighered]

Academics could participate in military-style war games to prepare for future emergencies such as catastrophic pollution, extreme heat or financial meltdowns, under plans being considered by the @EU_Commission, writes @DavidMJourno

This was my first experiment with #foresight for EU policy makers. It led to 5 scenarios that made me reflect on the #COVID19 pandemic and its possible #impact. The report is now published: https://t.co/XmCOgrQOSh @EUScienceInnov @TechnopolisGrp @AITtomorrow2day @FraunhoferISI

It is still a long road to diagnosis and an exhausting search for information that might not be out there. Let's keep on working on making the impact of rarity as manageable as possible - key message from @RSkarberg @rare2030 @eurordis

[Peter Varnai @PVarnai]

"The knowledge travels not the patient" says @SKyriakidesEU as a key principle at the @rare2030 #foresight in #RareDiseases policy conference. @eurordis @EU_Health
