Who Are Les Invisibles?

The Association Les Invisibles is a patient-led organization dedicated to raising awareness and advocating for individuals with invisible illnesses and disabilities.

Who Is PatLynk?

PatLynk is an AI powered health platform designed to connect patients with clinical trials that match their unique health profiles. By leveraging new technologies and patient-centric approach, PatLynk simplifies the search for clinical research opportunities, making it easier for all patients including those with rare or invisible conditions, to participate in medical innovation.

Why This Collaboration Matters and How It’s Making a Difference

When people hear “clinical trial,” they often think of new medications but clinical research is so much more. Trials may explore new drugs but they encompass all innovative treatments or therapies like yoga or physiotherapy, lifestyle changes such as diet or sleep routines, and digital tools like apps or wearables. Participating in a trial could mean making your voice part of the future of healthcare and accessing innovative treatment in general.

By giving access to medical innovation and promoting this broader vision of clinical trials, PatLynk and Les Invisibles are opening doors for more people to get involved, find support, and contribute to breakthroughs that truly impact their lives.

That is why this partnership between PatLynk and Les Invisibles is key. It is transforming clinical research for patients with invisible illnesses by putting their voices at the center and driving meaningful change through action:

• Amplifying Patient Voices: By directly incorporating patient experiences, the collaboration ensures research priorities and study designs truly reflect real-world challenges and become more inclusive and representative.

• Raising Awareness and Reducing Stigma: Through joint advocacy, educational webinars, tailored materials, and social media campaigns, they are increasing public and professional understanding of invisible illnesses and promoting patient diversity in clinical trials.

• Innovating Patient-Centered Solutions: Patient centric resources and tools, including AI-powered trial matching platforms that connect individuals—especially those with rare or complex conditions—to relevant studies, making participation more accessible.

Together, these efforts ensure that clinical research not only listens to patients but actively responds to their needs, making a real difference in healthcare innovation and inclusion.
