Hellenic Cancer Federation | ELLOK shared a post on LinkedIn:
“‘Innovation in cancer research is often imagined as a new machine or a complex chemical compound. But sometimes, innovation is simply a new person with a voice.’
Christos Tsagkaris, physician and Board Member of the EU Cancer Mission, could not have put it better when highlighting the importance of meaningful patient involvement in cancer research.
Patients are not simply the recipients of research outcomes. Their lived experience, perspectives, and voices can contribute to shaping the questions researchers ask, the priorities they set, and the solutions they develop.

‘From research FOR patients to research WITH patients.’
Because meaningful innovation begins when the people at the heart of cancer care have a voice in shaping the research that concerns them.”
