Key Messages from the MSF Scientific Days

• Syria – the need to do more, do it better, and be creative in how we work.
• Humanity, relationships, community engagement are central – whether designing technology, running a refugee camp, or delivering HIV care.
• Innovation needs rigorous evaluation and the willingness to "fail forward and learn".
• Choose the right research questions then make sure your findings lead to change.
• Ethics systems in humanitarian settings need work – for both research and innovation.
• Drug resistant infections: challenges of resource-rich world also faced in humanitarian settings – we just often fail to investigate or diagnose them late.
• Hepatitis C is a challenging disease but good treatment outcomes are possible in vulnerable groups as long as access to affordable drugs is maintained
