The European Medicines Agency (EMA) is organising a virtual event on “Research in regulatory science – addressing the needs” to inform the public and stakeholders about regulatory science research needs and how stakeholders can engage with these regulatory science research needs.

The webinar will take place on January 18th 2022 from 10.00 – 12.00 CET.

Gaps exist in regulatory science that need to be addressed to improve medicine development and evaluation to enable access to innovative medicines that address patients’ needs. The EMA identified around 100 such topics and will publish them on December 15th 2021 as the “Regulatory science research needs” list.

Thus, this virtual event aims to launch the Regulatory science research needs initiative of the EMA. With this initiative, the EMA seeks to stimulate researchers and funding organisations to consider addressing these needs in their research work and funding programmes, respectively.

Researchers and stakeholders are invited to raise questions and to comment during the event; the agenda can be found here.
