Patient Advisory Committee Lung Regeneration Consortium

To emphasize the Lung Foundation Netherlands’ commitment to its patient interest agenda, a Patient Advisory Committee (PAC) is actively involved in the Lung Regeneration Consortium. The participation of patient representatives affords the consortium direct insight into the issues and challenges faced by lung patients, esp. COPD. The PAC is responsible for identifying and prioritizing topics to be addressed by the consortium from the patient perspective. Their involvement improves outcomes for lung patients and ensures successful implementation of future products. Members of the Committee:

• Pieter van Eck
• Dieuwke de Blaauw
• Anke Dondertman
• Jos Pielage
• Ineke Hart
• Marjan Gorter
