ERICA WP5 Educational Webinar 2 “Practical guide on how to use the Catalogue of services and the IMT” - Monday 24 October 2022 13:00 – 14:00 CET

In this webinar, Anton Ussi (Operations & Finance Director at EATRIS), together with Agustin Arasanz Duque (Senior Innovation Manager at EATRIS), will provide practical guidance for using two important tools for RD researchers, developed within EU-funded projects: ERICA and EJP RD.

This webinar is part of the Educational Webinar Series from ERICA's WP5 Translation and Innovation. It builds on the introductory webinar "Current research services available for the rare diseases community" that was organized in November 2021.

Webinar will be interactive with expected audience involvement. Attendees are invited to visit both resources prior to webinar attendance and use the opportunity for live tutorial and discussion. The Catalogue of Services contains a wide range of preclinical, clinical, regulatory and development services provided by the European infrastructures ranging from samples, data & databases, technologies & facilities, models & tools to expertise & advice.
The Innovation Management Toolbox (IMT) is a free-to-use and curated reference library of resources in rare disease translational medicine that will provide investigators with self-help resources specific to their needs.

EURORDIS Call on the European Commission to introduce a European action plan on rare diseases

The Beyond 1 Million Genomes project in support from the 1+MG initiative is organising the annual 1+MG/B1MG Stakeholder Forum to be held online on Thursday, the 13th of October. The theme of the day will be to explore how the efforts of 1+MG/B1MG can be scaled up and made sustainable through engagement with stakeholders. The day will cover key updates on the 1+MG Trust Framework, B1MG Maturity Level Model, and the efforts of 1+MG towards engaging with industry, followed by a panel discussion on industry engagement.

During the afternoon session from 13:45 to 15:00 CEST, we will ask the participants to join any of the 4 breakout rooms that have been set up along the 1+MG Use Cases: rare diseases, cancer, common and complex diseases, infectious diseases.

The goals of each breakout session will be to: 1) Identify specific challenges that could arise in adopting and taking forward the 1+MG Trust Framework, as well as the role of industry in doing so; 2) Provide recommendations on how these challenges could be navigated. Within this context and to have a rich discussion, it would be great if you can join the forum and specifically the breakout session for the "rare diseases" use case. You can register for the event through the registration link.
