  DIA is Proud to Announce the DIA 2022 Global Annual Meeting Keynote Speakers who will Speak on the Future of Healthcare

  As we emerge from the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the importance of inspiration and seeing a future where all people have access to lifesaving interventions has never been greater, and DIA aims to highlight some of the most forward-looking and positive views of what the future of healthcare will be. This year’s format will be presented as a series of perspectives representing diversity of thinking, topic, and geography, to include:

  
  Miruna Sasu, President and Chief Executive Officer, COTA
  The Future of Healthcare is Inclusive
  Overcoming barriers to access globally requires information sharing, trusted communication, and increased awareness of regulatory science challenges. Collaboration and coordination, as demonstrated by medicines regulatory authorities in times of crisis, can enhance global reliance and cooperation to increase efficiency and bring solutions to the patients that need them.

   

  
  Emer Cooke, Chair International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities (ICMRA)
  The Future of Healthcare is Global
  
  Overcoming barriers to access globally requires information sharing, trusted communication, and increased awareness of regulatory science challenges. Collaboration and coordination, as demonstrated by medicines regulatory authorities in times of crisis, can enhance global reliance and cooperation to increase efficiency and bring solutions to the patients that need them.

   

  
  Ken Getz, Director Center for the Study of Drug Development at Tufts University
  The Future of Healthcare is Centered on the Individual Patient
  
  Patients have always been at the center of their care but there is growing need and acceptance in clinical R&D that patients are stakeholders in clinical decision making, health IT user experience, and medical product development. Focusing on what matters to patients and gathering feedback through the clinical development pipeline is an important element of improving study quality and ultimately impacting accessibility, perceptions, and market penetration. Patient preferences and satisfaction also serve as indicators for continuous improvement that can drive retention and operational efficiency.
