WCG Patient Forum

The WCG Patient Forum elevates the voices of experts: patients, patient advocates, and professionals in health care and drug development. These voices come together to discuss issues and find solutions that are of critical value to patients.

Ongoing since 2019, the WCG Patient Forum events, video interviews, and podcasts have become an information hub for thousands of research participants and professionals.

  • Parent-driven preclinical research.
  • Access barriers in focus for change.
