EUPATI Toolbox on Medicines Research & Development

The online resource contains more than 3,000 expert materials on the ‘A-Z’ of medicines research and development (R&D), which includes a wealth of fact sheets, graphics, slideshows, videos, recorded webinars, print-ready materials, and a full glossary. It is available to all European patient groups, patient advocates, and anyone who is interested in learning more about the medicines R&D process. The project is the result of a long-term collaboration of expert stakeholders (including patients, researchers and academics). It also follows EUPATI’s hugely successful Patient Expert Training Course, which was launched in October 2014.

The vision behind the toolbox is that the public will use it to gain the knowledge required to make a meaningful contribution to medicines development. All resources are available under a Creative Commons License and can be explored, shared and adapted by users.  Content includes information-rich modules and best-in-class educational materials on discovery research, clinical development, regulatory affairs, medicinal safety, pharmacovigilance and the principles of health technology assessment.
