Health & Medical ExpertsMeet Our Health, Medical and CBRNe Experts

The Resilience Advisors Network (RAN) offers a health capability of highly experienced individuals who, together, bring remarkable expertise in clinical medicine, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, and operational emergency response.

This agile team is uniquely positioned to support Horizon Europe and EU4Health consortia responding, for example, to HERA calls on CBRN preparedness or wider health issues with an impact on civil protection.

The experts combine hands-on knowledge of regulatory pathways, medical countermeasure development, and frontline deployment with operational perspectives from civil protection and health security. This allows us to act as both subject-matter contributors and as end-user representatives, bridging the gap between advanced research and practical uptake.

We are always open to joining consortia preparing proposals and to help with technocal development of submissions into areas such as:

  • innovative medicinal products for CBRN threats,
  • reusable respiratory PPE and protective suits, and
  • detection and diagnosis tools for rapid threat identification

Across these areas, the RAN health capability can contribute to defining user requirements, validating operational concepts, advising on regulatory and market readiness, and supporting dissemination and stakeholder engagement across European networks. By integrating scientific, technical, and practitioner expertise, we provide added value to project consortia aiming to deliver impact, accelerate innovation uptake, and enhance the EU’s resilience against intentional health threats.

RAN has an enviable track record for delivery from within strong consortia in this area and looks forward to supporting potential proposals.

Led by well-known expert in the field, Fiona Higginbotham, we'll work with you to deliver a small, cost effective and highly credible team ensuring relevant, high-impact support wherever it's needed. We invite you to explore some of the profiles below and reach out to discuss how we might help.
