Within the EJP RD, EATRIS offers an expert mentoring service for rare disease researchers. Advancing promising technologies and therapies towards clinical application is a complex undertaking. Academic research often lacks easy access to regulatory, therapy development expertise, manufacturing, and healthcare practice, leading to high failure rates.
The mentoring program provides mentoring on:
- Translational feasibility
- Regulatory compliance
- Product classification
- Quality assurance and control
- Intellectual property strategy
- Suitability of analytical readouts
- Manufacturing
- Therapy development
