In this Vital Health Podcast, Duane Schulthess speaks to Pernille Weiss, a former Member of the European Parliament and the Rapporteur of the European Parliament’s revision of the EU's General Pharmaceutical Legislation (GPL). The GPL proposes many profound changes to the regulatory structures of the EU’s pharmaceutical sector, and MEP Weiss sat at the centre of the European Parliament’s revision which rolled-back many of the European Commissions’ suggested cuts to regulatory data protection. Pernille Weiss is a qualified Nurse, and the CEO of the healthcare consultancy Archimed.
