   46 - Professor Andrea Winkler on unlocking the big data potential of One Health

   “In a changing world where we have so many challenges, we need to learn to listen to other disciplines and to move forward together…that is important to create impact.” Welcome to the third, and last, episode related to BBMRI at the 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting that took place from 28 June to 3 July in Germany. You’ll meet Professor Andrea Winkler who shares her expertise in One Health to bring a deeper understanding of the concept. At Lindau, BBMRI-ERIC hosted a panel session to discuss ‘The Role of International Infrastructure in Fostering One Health Through Big Data and AI’. Professor Winkler took part in the panel that was a prime opportunity to address with young scientists how large infrastructures, like BBMRI with its focus on biobanking and sensitive health data, can play a major role in One Health datasets and research. Andrea is a neuroscientist and a specialist neurologist, at TUM University Hospital, and the co(joint)-Director of the Center for Global Health at the School of Medicine and Health, at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), Germany. Her special academic interests lie with Global Health, Global Brain Health and One Health and their application to different fields. She also co-chair’s The Lancet One Health Commission.

   45 - In conversation with Professor Charles Rice at the 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting

   “When you give it your best shot and you think you overcome this barrier and you haven't. You just have to say, well, damn it, I'm going to do it anyway or die trying.” This episode brings you an interview with Professor Charles Rice, The Rockefeller University, conducted by Dr Carina Vieira, University of Porto. It’s not often you get to hear a conversation between someone at the start of their scientific career and someone who has been awarded a Nobel Prize. Charles received the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for work focused on conducting the basic science to discover the hepatitis C virus (HCV), his team’s study of the HCV genome and constructing the first infectious clone of HCV that has led to the development of highly successful treatments of the virus. Carina is a researcher at the Pharmaceutical Sciences department at the University of Porto. She joined hundreds of promising early-career scientists at the 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting that took place from 28 June to 3 July in Germany. BBMRI-ERIC sponsored Carina’s participation in the meeting as part of our commitment to supporting emerging talent and ideas driving future scientific breakthroughs. The conversation took place right after a BBMRI-ERIC panel on ‘The Role of International Infrastructure in Fostering One Health Through Big Data and AI’. Both Charles and Carina were panellists.

   44 - ELSI Dialogues: Cancer survivorship at the core of research.

   Cancer survivorship is rapidly emerging as a central dimension of contemporary oncology, reflecting not only advances in early detection and treatment but also the growing recognition of survivors as key stakeholders in research, policy, and care design. In alignment with the objectives of the EU Mission on Cancer, which aims to improve the lives of more than 3 million people affected by cancer by 2030, this webinar places cancer survivors at the core of a multidisciplinary dialogue on research governance, ethical responsibility, and patient rights. Held in proximity to Cancer Survivors Day, which is observed internationally and this year will be celebrated on June 7, 2026, the event will explore how survivorship challenges reshape the research agenda across the entire cancer continuum. Beyond clinical outcomes, cancer survivors face long-term physical, psychological, social, and economic consequences, including barriers to employment, insurance, and full societal participation. These realities raise critical questions about equity, data use, informed consent, and the fair distribution of innovation. Bringing together some cancer survivors, expert advocates and a bioethicist, the webinar examines how lived experience can and should inform regulatory frameworks, research priorities, and ethical standards. Particular attention will be paid to the role of survivors in co-creating research, the governance of health data within the evolving European regulatory landscape, and the ethical implications of emerging technologies in oncology. We believe in a more inclusive, participatory, and ethically grounded model of cancer research, which recognizes survivors not merely as subjects of study, but as agents of change within the European cancer ecosystem. Speakers: Virginia Sanchini (Assistant Professor of bioethics, Department of Oncology and Hemato-Oncology, University of Milan, Italy; Visiting Professor, Center for Biomedical Ethics and Law, KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium) Maria Theodoridou (Secretary of the Board of Directors of ELLOK Hellenic Cancer Federation and President of the Cancer Patient Support Association “Living well with Cancer” in Heraklion, Crete) Richard Stephens (cancer survivor, co-Chair of the UK’s national research group into Living Well with and beyond Cancer) Merel Hennink (Secretary of the Board of Cancer Patients Europe, expert advocate) Moderators: Dr. Melanie Goisauf (BBMRI-ERIC), Dr. Zisis Kozlakidis (IARC/WHO) This webinar is offered by ELSI Services & Research Department at BBMRI-ERIC.
