How should confidential patient information be used in the future? Our report on the COPI notices explores this question and more. View it here.

Following the release of the PHG Foundation’s in-depth report on the Control of Patient Information (COPI) notice extensions during the COVID-19 pandemic, on 6 December we discussed the key findings.

The new report, released on 30 November, considers how regulatory changes to the governance of patient information have impacted genomic and medical research, and whether these changes should be integrated into the regulatory framework longer-term.

An interactive panel of experts reacted to the findings, and add their own valuable insights.
