On 16 January, the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) projects ROADMAP (focussing on Alzheimer’s disease – AD), Harmony (Hematology) and BigData@Heart (Cardiovascular) met with BD4BO’s (Big Data for Better Outcomes) Communication and Collaboration Work Package (WP3) in Brussels, Belgium to discuss collaborative communication and outreach activities and to look ahead to 2018.

The meeting was chaired by Shahid Hanif (Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry – ABPI). In depth discussions revolved around what has worked well and what needs to be improved with regard to BD4BO coordination and support activities.
