How innovation comes to medicine: Keynote speeches and panel discussion on November 3
How do findings from research come into practice in the healthcare industry? What is the potential of personalized medicine? And what activities are there in the Freiburg area that promote this translation? As part of the travelling exhibition "Gemeinsam für gesünder", which will make a stop in Freiburg on 3 November, the event "Translation rethought: How does innovation get into medicine?" will take place at the University Hospital Freiburg with keynote speeches and panel discussion.
The travelling exhibition "Together for healthier"
What challenges will the healthcare system of the future face? What role does digitalization play and how is Baden-Württemberg working to ensure that all citizens benefit from medical progress? The travelling exhibition of the Forum Gesundheitsstandort Baden-Württemberg provides answers to these questions: The aim of the exhibition is to bring information about innovative approaches in health care to citizens. On 3 November, the exhibition will stop off at Freiburg Central Station. To kick off the exhibition, an event with keynote speeches and a panel discussion on the topic: "Translation rethought: How does innovation get into medicine?" will take place at the University Medical Center Freiburg. The invited experts will talk about how new therapies reach patients faster, how digitization helps to conduct clinical trials, how the training of physicians is constantly being improved and how new ideas from research and production come into practice via start-ups and industry.
Meet the Hub-Team
We support Pfizer Healthcare Hubs in the translation process of research and practice through cocreation: We offer startups and tech companies the opportunity to use the resources of a global pharmaceutical company to optimize their solutions, scale them or establish them on the market. Peter Neske, Innovation Lead at the Freiburg Hub, will report on why the model of cocreation between innovators and an established pharmaceutical company has proven itself for the translation process from research into application and will bring the perspective of the Pfizer Healthcare Hub as an interface between innovators and the pharmaceutical industry to the podium. We look forward to an inspiring exchange!
