Patient Engagement Council
The Bayer Global Oncology Patient Engagement Council was launched in 2021 to advise Bayer on how to make clinical trials more meaningful to patients and their families. The council consists of research advocates from the patient and caregiver community. The council reviews plans for clinical studies to minimize patient burden, suggests ideas to improve patient retention and enrollment, helps connect with patient communities to share results of clinical studies and helps create patient friendly language to improve understanding and use of healthcare information to make appropriate health decisions.

Digital Patient Council
The Digital Patient Council is a diverse group of patient advocates and caregivers, who come from different parts of the world and walks of life to help create simple and reliable scientific information for patients and caregivers on Bayer’s Global Oncology Instagram Channel @bayer_oncology, the purpose of which is to raise awareness of all cancer types for everyone. The council guides strategies, suggests educational topics, ensures patient friendly language and content that meets patient and caregiver needs. The Global Medical team at Bayer meets regularly with the council to discuss what topics and gaps should be the focus and opportunities for collaboration.
