Marco Greco stated: “I welcome the recognition by Member states of EPF’s work to bring the voice of patients into policy making and into the EMA decisions. At EPF, we also thank the European Public Health Alliance for its support to my nomination. Working together, we have an even broader perspective. Our experience and expertise in representing the patients and public health will help ensure that our collective voice continues to be heard in the EU institutions and in the EMA operations and decisions”.
