Over the past two years in healthcare, we’ve become accustomed to a focus on infectious diseases as the world tackled the covid-19 pandemic. Despite this focus, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have not gone away and the World Health Organization (WHO) predicts a “long-term upsurge in deaths from NCDs.”
That’s why we wanted to shine a light on the innovations that are making a difference in combating these diseases. This special collection of 10 papers published in BMJ Innovations focuses on those innovations which have the potential to drive improvements across NCDs.
BMJ innovations webinar on on non-communicable diseases
This webinar took place on the 8 August and showcased the best available articles showcased in a special BMJ Innovations collection, kindly sponsored by Pfizer.
