Trishna Bharadia is a multi-award winning patient advocate and patient engagement advisor who received a diagnosis of MS in 2008, aged 28. Based in the UK, Trishna works nationally and internationally with multiple stakeholders, including healthcare professionals, the life sciences industry, charities, patient associations and non-profit organizations, to get the patient voice heard louder, stronger and more effectively throughout the healthcare journey and medicines development lifecycle. She’s particularly passionate about diversity issues in healthcare, good patient engagement practices and health literacy. She is also a patron/ambassador for several health- and disability-related organizations, including MS Society UK, ParaDance UK, ADD International and Lyfebulb.
I am very pleased to be part of the PRISMS initiative as I believe it is supremely important for people living with MS to have the opportunity to learn, on a global platform, from each other and MS experts so as to be able to better manage their condition. PRISMS will help to achieve this.
