On Day 2 of #ISMPPEurope, Simon Stones delivered a thought-provoking session on going beyond traditional patient authorship by fostering deeper collaboration with patients in #ScientificCongresses.

As Eoin highlighted, we need to move past tokenism and involve patients as co-authors and active contributors—not just attendees. When patients lead discussions, the impact of #ScientificExchange grows stronger for everyone.

This session explored the value of patient involvement in data dissemination, the challenges stakeholders face, and actionable ways to overcome barriers. It’s time to embrace meaningful partnerships with patients to drive progress in medical communications💡

What steps can we take to ensure patient voices are truly heard?
