Good Practice in the Conduct of Clinical Trials in Greece Today

Patient education and active involvement, the effective use of data, modern national infrastructure and a robust institutional framework are essential to building a sustainable and competitive clinical research ecosystem.

At the 5th Educational Conference, “Good Practice in the Conduct of Clinical Trials in Greece Today”, held on 9–10 October in Thessaloniki, Evangelia (Lia) Koraki, President of HACRO – Hellenic Association of CROs, contributed to two important thematic discussions:

▪️ “From Information to Empowerment – Trust, Knowledge and Active Participation in Clinical Research”, serving as a session co-chair and presenting EUPATI examples and tools for patient education and empowerment.

▪️ “From the Patient Voice to Health Policy Development – Data, Institutions and National Infrastructure to Advance Clinical Research”, sharing insights into Greece’s position in the new European era of clinical research and the next priorities for strengthening the country’s competitiveness.

We warmly thank Ε.Ε.ΔΙ.Ε.Κ.Ε. and the Haematology-Oncology Department of THEAGENIO Cancer Hospital for organising an excellent conference, as well as the Conference President, Eirini Katodritou, and all participants for the meaningful dialogue and exchange of perspectives.
