SUMMARY:RealiseD Webinar 2: Evidence Assessment Framework. A need to change mindset from developers\, regulators and HTA
DESCRIPTION:The second webinar turns the spotlight on one of the most critical issues in rare disease research: the generation and assessment of evidence. François Meyer\, a leading consultant in health technology assessment\, will examine why current frameworks often fail to deliver predictable and aligned outcomes\, resulting in delays and inequalities in patient access. The session will explore the global and European initiatives aimed at addressing these shortcomings and present the RealiseD consortium’s efforts to advance scientific and operational solutions. More importantly\, it will advocate for a fundamental shift in mindset—one that embraces flexibility and innovation in the way evidence is generated\, interpreted\, and assessed.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Lymphodepletion for CAR-T/IEC Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:Achieving consistent and effective outcomes in CAR T and other immune effector cell (IEC) therapies relies heavily on getting lymphodepletion “right.” Emerging evidence shows that both under- and over-exposure can impact safety\, efficacy\, and long-term persistence\, making optimized dosing strategies increasingly critical as the field evolves. \nThis webinar will explore how model-informed and data-driven approaches can help identify the optimal lymphodepletion exposure window\, improve predictability\, and support more standardized practices across patient populations and treatment centers. Speakers will discuss current challenges\, scientific rationale\, clinical insights\, and practical considerations for implementation.

SUMMARY:Undiagnosed Hackathon 2025
DESCRIPTION:350 million people live with an undiagnosed disease worldwide. Genome sequencing can provide answers for 40% of the People Living With Undiagnosed Disease (PLWUD) but around 60% still don’t receive a diagnosis. The purpose of the Undiagnosed Hackathon is trying to find new ways and collaborations to solve the undiagnosed diseases\, that can’t be solved today. In this unique event multidisciplinary teams of clinicians\, bioinformaticians/molecular biologists\, scientists\, developers\, AI specialists and brilliant minds will work together to tackle the most difficult diseases.
