Avicenna Alliance at the first Strategic Day and General Assembly of the SILICA Alliance in Paris.
16/07/2025
In 2023, the Avicenna Alliance was proud to have contributed to the creation of SILICA, whose mission is to promote, organise and facilitate scientific, educational and research activities related to artificial health data.
On 8 July 2025, Thierry Marchal, President and Secretary General of the Avicenna Alliance, participated in the first Strategic Day and General Assembly of the SILICA Alliance held in the office of UniCancer in Paris. With its focus on artificial data and its use to accelerate clinical trials, SILICA is an interesting and powerful complement to the Avicenna Alliance.
It was a fantastic experience to be able to exchange ideas with people who have similar, albeit slightly different, objectives. Divided into two working groups, Methodology and Access to Authorities, the members developed a concrete action plan with deliverables and timing. For the Avicenna Alliance, a better understanding of each stakeholder's objectives facilitates fruitful and effective activities.
Our mutual collaboration allows the two organisations to work closely together, minimising overlap in order to maximise rapid impact for patients.
