André Chagwedera: Patients should decide which research is funded

Transformation in Trials

This week we have André Chagwedera in the studio, the Founder and CEO of Fleming Protocol. We focus on health data, and what it would mean for patients to own their data.

One of the consequences of patients owning their data would be that patient communities would have a say in which areas to conduct clinical research in as well as the design of clinical protocols.

Fleming Protocol is a patient peer-to-peer network built on the blockchain. Where Fleming Protocol focuses on providing the tooling to make this network work, they work closely with patient communities, researchers and industry to understand the currently unmet needs and funnel those into research.

Having built the solution on the blockchain builds traceability into the process of what gets funded and researched and how these priorities happen. We dive into how this would happen with the mechanisms in the blockchain as well as the needed competencies from the industry.
