The European Bank for induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (EBiSC, www.EBiSC.org) is a not-for-profit biobank which stores and shares stem cells that can be used for research. The EBiSC is pleased to announce the successful completion of a pivotal Public Patient Involvement session in partnership with Alzheimer Europe. This session stands as a testament to EBiSC’s commitment to incorporating and respecting patient perspectives into EBiSC frameworks designed to securely share iPS cells and data with researchers worldwide.
The collaboration between EBiSC and Alzheimer Europe has enabled EBiSC to receive patient insights which will inform not only how EBiSC operates day to day, but also more broadly, EBiSC’s ethical and legal frameworks and communication with the general public. EBiSC would like to extend a huge thank you to the European Working Group of People with Dementia for their feedback, discussion and insights, and is excited to harness and share more about these learnings moving forward, leveraging this collaboration's outcomes to further develop and grow EBiSC.
