SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE (SC) OF AN ASSOCIATION/FEDERATION OF PATIENTS

This scientific committee aims to assess the quality of research projects in response to grant calls, ensuring the delivery of valuable scientific and medical information to patients. Current focus is on achieving the first goal, while the second goal is not prioritized by associations. The case study highlights the dependence of the committee on funding for its existence and the financial contributions made by national associations. It also discusses the preference for granting projects to national research teams and proposes greater involvement of patients in the research process.
