All About NAMs

Eye on the Prize

Episode 11

Tuesday, February 11, 2025 • Duration 28:18

In 2004 Bellberry was founded as a disrupter and paradigm breaker. An institutionally independent not-for-profit company that offers Human Research Ethics Committee services.

Today Bellberry provides ethics reviews for more than 40% of the CTN clinical trials that take place in Australia and has re-invested $12 million into the research sector.

In 2024 we celebrated 20 years of Bellberry with a focus on the difference we’ve made since we began. This was recognised with Bellberry winning the Telstra Best of Business award for Championing health late last year.

In this episode of 'From Lab to Life' we hear from some of the people we work with about the impact of Bellberry.

It's All About the Participant

In It’s All About the Participant we hear first-hand about what it’s like to be the participant and ask how could the experience be improved for others?

In Episode 9 of From Lab to Life we take a deep dive into the experience of those that have been on life-changing clinical trials.

Tackling A Wicked Problem

Episode 4

Thursday, January 25, 2024 • Duration 35:24

Barely a month goes by without a media report of the next breakthrough in cancer or other rare and life-threatening diseases. Unfortunately, it can take precious time for patients to receive the benefit of the latest medical innovation.

In June 2023, Bellberry gathered representatives of regulators, reimbursement agencies, pharmaceutical companies and, most importantly, patient groups from around the globe to Adelaide, Australia, to examine the issue of accelerated access to potentially beneficial medicines.

The challenge for the group was to agree on the principles to be considered when establishing processes to provide faster access to life-saving treatments.

Gathering these experts in one place to focus on this difficult issue for three-and-a-half days was an achievement in itself.

In this episode of From Lab To Life we meet some of the experts who attended this International Scientific Congress and hear their thoughts on this complex issue.
