Man flu: Preparing industry leaders andcare providers
The subject of man flu has long been viewed with scepticism by those in the life sciences industry. However, new research conducted by pharmaphorum indicates that the condition may, in fact, be very real, impacting the lives of patients around the world.
Unlike more traditional clinical trials, pharmaphorum’s exclusive study used Bayesian mathematical principles to extrapolate results from only one male participant with a particularly severe case of ‘man flu’.
Results from the small sample group conclusively demonstrated the existence of man flu, a condition caused by the male mind’s reaction to immune challenge, with symptoms including grumpiness, excessive complaining, and feelings of despair and hopelessness. But how can life sciences build upon the success of pharmaphorum’s trial to create real benefits for patients suffering from man flu?
Join us on 1st April for a webinar, held in association with Healthware International, where leading figures in the life science industry will discuss the future of man flu research and the need to boost awareness of this serious issue.
Participants will also be discussing the common symptoms associated with the condition, as well as the stigma facing man flu sufferers. Through this webinar, speakers hope to provide much-needed insight into the patient experience, shining a light on the many, many struggles men face living with the condition.
