ITI World Symposium 202ONE: Interview with Bilal Al-Nawas

“This will be the future: to sum up in the patient's perspective”
An interview with Irena Sailer at the ITI World Symposium 202ONE

“More focus on the patient than ever”. The 5-day ITI World Symposium 202ONE Online is a digital experience in a class of its own, with 4 – 5 hours of daily live lectures and discussions each day on a dedicated state-of-the-art platform. In an absolutely novel approach, 7 patient scenarios are presented. Patients explain their issues in their own words and how these affect their daily life. In 7 live sessions, international experts address these real-life concerns, followed by moderated group discussions live from the ITI studio in Switzerland.

We asked Bilal Al-Nawas how it felt talking to thousands of viewers without actually seeing them, about working with the 7 patient scenarios, scientific evidence, and what his message is to participants who are not yet ITI Members.
