In a few months, the VALUE-Dx project is coming to an end. To honour this occasion, we are hosting a closing conference on 4 - 5 September in Valencia, Spain. During the event, we will look back on the tremendous journey, discuss the final results and look forward to the possible continuation of the work. There will also be ample room to interact and share ideas with invited stakeholders outside of the VALUE-Dx consortium.

🔐Bigpicture partners sign pioneering Data Sharing Agreement!🔐 We are excited to announce that all Bigpicture partners have signed the new Data Sharing Agreement (DSA), a major milestone for secure and responsible data sharing under GDPR. The DSA is fundamental for Bigpicture's repository. Jan-Willem Boiten, co-lead WP5, and senior program manager at Lygature, says, "The DSA sets out all necessary safeguards and clearly defines the roles and responsibilities related to data sharing." 🔗Read more: https://t.ly/kGtKH #Bigpicture #DataSharing #GDPR #Research #Collaboration #Milestone

***EUbOPEN opens its gates to a library of chemical compounds*** Enabling and unlocking biology in the OPEN (#EUbOPEN), a project of the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI), is an international consortium which is lead by Prof. Dr. Stefan Knapp from the Goethe-Universität Frankfurt. The Innovative Health Initiative (IHI) recognized EUbOPEN as a research highlight in its new brochure “IHI 2023 In Focus“. When developing new medicines, scientists aim to understand the underlying causes of #diseases. To achieve this, they study the role of different #proteins involved in the disease process. This requires chemical compounds that can alter or block the action of individual proteins. By the end of 2023, the EUbOPEN Gateway provided scientists with access to a library of 2300 precisely annotated chemical compounds covering approximately 850 different proteins. The EUbOPEN team’s goal is to create the largest and most deeply characterized open collection of #chemical modulators for protein function. Additionally, 88 high-quality probe compounds, co-developed by academics and #pharmaceutical industries, are now available to the global scientific community. These initiatives empower researchers in academia and industry to design #drugs that target specific disease-related proteins and enhance our understanding of disease mechanisms.

Mark your calendars, conect4children is delighted to be a part of the “Better Medicines for Children” happening this October 📅! Organised by the EFGCP - European Forum for Good Clinical Practice this year’s theme is “Common issues in clinical development amplified in paediatric drug development”. Over 2 days, speakers and experts from #paediatricmedicine and #clinicaltrials will discuss child-centric medicine 🧒, the inclusion of pregnant people in clinical trials 🤰, data in paediatric #drugdevelopment 💊 and more.

Health research collaborations mean sharing data – we can deliver faster if we identify and remove obstacles early. Capturing the experience of scientists who have travelled this road, IHI and EFPIA have put together a #Data #Sharing #Playbook. It offers practical solutions to common data sharing challenges, enabling researchers to focus on what matters most – advancing medical science. Explore the Playbook and join us on 4 September for a masterclass on how to facilitate data sharing ➡ https://bit.ly/46hVGmp #IHITransformingHealth #WeWontRest

A great opportunity to contribute to the work of our sister partnership Global Health EDCTP3 👇
