Webinar series: Empowering patient groups in rare disease research

Funding is essential to drive these efforts, but so are patient groups. Funders are now prioritising the use of real-world evidence in applications, which means that patient organisations have an even greater opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

However, navigating the complexities of research funding can be challenging. That’s why we’ve developed this two-part webinar series to explore the current funding landscape and show how patient groups can add significant value to research applications.

What will you learn in this webinar?

• The types of research you could support, beyond just clinical trials.
• The different funding streams available, from government bodies to commercial funding from industry.
• The opportunities and limitations associated with each funding stream.
• A case study from Toni Mathieson on her experience securing funding for multiple research and collaborative projects.
