Patient Perspective: Jane Burns SJS story

Attend our 2025 International Health Lecture for further insights into how we can shape research to improve health for all: https://bit.ly/3HVje94 In this video, Jane Burns shares her life story of living with Stevens-Johnson Syndrome or ‘SJS/10’, a serious condition which causes loss of skin and can be fatal, after an adverse reaction to a change in her medication aged 19. Jane has sought to share her lived experience to raise awareness and help shape pharmacogenetic research to improve health outcomes for others. Pharmacogenetic testing will be able to give the answers as to whether a medication is suitable for people or not and what dosage they need, taking away the risk. “I think involving patient voices and those with lived experience of health conditions in the research process is integral in ensuring the research benefits those who are impacted most”, says Jane. This talk by Jane was part of the Sir Colin Dollery FORUM Annual Lecture 2022, held in Liverpool.
