Overtime: a deep dive into the European Medicines Agency

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) is a decentralised agency of the European Union (EU) responsible for the scientific evaluation, supervision and safety monitoring of medicines in the EU. The European Medicines Agency plays an important role in the innovation and availability of medicines for human and veterinary use through its support to research activities within the European Union (EU) and beyond.What is the role the EMA can play in facilitating innovation in brain research? Florence Butlen, Senior Scientific Officer at the EMA, Fabio Blandini, IBRO-PERC Chair, and Patrice Boyer, EBC Vice President, continue the discussion started at the Brain Innovation Days launch event in October 2020.Materials referenced during the conversation can be found on the Brain Innovation Days website: https://www.braininnovationdays.eu/articles-bid/
