European Patient Academy for Therapeutic Innovation (EUPATI)

EUPATI - The European Patients Academy on Therapeutic Innovation provides patients and the general public with scientifically sound, objective and understandable information on the research and development process of medicines. It will strengthen the ability of patients and laypersons to advise regulatory authorities and ethics committees, for example in clinical trials.

EUPATI is an association of 33 organisations led by the European Patient Forum. It consists of a unique combination of patient organisations, university and non-profit organisations with expertise in patient and public participation, and European pharmaceutical research companies.

EUPATI aims to provide information and training to support the involvement of patients and patient representatives in the drug research and development process.

EUPATI aims to make a visible contribution to all stakeholders involved in drug research and development. It wants to find ways of involving these stakeholders more effectively in areas such as drug research, planning and conducting clinical trials, assessing the safety of medicines, risk-benefit balance and health economics.
