Given the increasing complexity of the biomedical innovation pipeline, collaboration across organizational, sectoral and national boundaries is an increasingly important means of leveraging resources and mitigating risk. The need to jointly tackle systemic bottlenecks is particularly acute. Using examples from EATRIS European infrastructure for translational medicine, we advocate for actors in all domains related to preclinical translational research to expand their collaborative horizons to tackle the long-term systemic risks that hamper drug development.
