Nathalie Bere, MPH
Patient Engagement
European Medicines Agency, The Netherlands
Nathalie has been working with the European Medicines Agency since 1998 and is currently responsible for its engagement with patients and consumers. Patients bring specific knowledge and expertise from their real-life experience of the condition and its treatment to the scientific discussions, and their contributions have led to better regulatory outcomes. Over the years, she has been dedicated to testing and implementing opportunities for the inclusion of the patient’s voice in all aspects of the regulatory lifecycle of a medicine. As a steady increase in patient engagement at EMA has been observed, Nathalie will look to further strengthen these activities and ensure they are fit for purpose in an evolving health landscape. Nathalie holds a Master in Public Health from the University of East London (UEL) and has a Bachelor of Science in Psychology.
