IMAS at EPIS

IMAS at EPIS

In November, ASIF Secretary and Chair of the IMAS sub-committee, Andri Phoka, presented the IMAS project at EPIS.  EPIS is the European Patient Innovation Summit and, this year, was in the form of a virtual webinar series between September and November.  The 2021 summit focussed on matters relating to health data and explored the value of health data to patient communities.

Andri presented the IMAS case study as part of a session on ‘what patient organisations can do to empower patients around health data’.  During the presentation, she talked about the different ways that IMAS data has been used with a range of stakeholders.  Speaking to an audience of around 200 people from across Europe, Andri demonstrated why this type of health data is crucial in providing evidence to underpin patient advocacy work.
