ICPerMed provides a platform to initiate and support communication and exchange on personalised medicine research, funding and implementation. The high-level participation from all over Europe and beyond enables ICPerMed to efficiently map the scientific and political landscape, allowing an alignment of research and funding activities on European and international level and fostering actions toward personalised medicine implementation. ICPerMed was initially developed as European initiative but is acting globally to foster the development of “Next Generation Medicine”.

ERA PerMed_ Fostering the development of personalised medicine through RESEARCH PROJECT FUNDING

The European Research Area Network (ERA-Net Cofund) for Personalised Medicine, ERA PerMed, aligns research and funding activities and transforms ICPerMed’s strategic reflections into reality. In 2023, after launching in total 5 annual calls, over 100M€ will be invested in personalised medicine research through ERA PerMed in cancer, neurosciences, infectious diseases and other medical fields.

The importance of REGIONS for personalised medicine development and implementation

Healthcare is often organised at the regional level. We can capitalise on a region’s knowledge, research, development, investment, and innovative implementation pilots, to further scale-up personalised medicine approaches. Learn more about the CSAs SAPHIRe and Regions4PerMed.

INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION: “Healthy lives for all at all ages”

The common understanding of personalised medicine, the promotion of international standards and global collaborations, are key to fostering the uptake of personalised approaches in healthcare. International collaboration is essential to ensure that personalised medicine approaches are applicable as broadly as possible and not limited to a specific regional context, to make healthcare more efficient and equitable. EULAC-PerMed, Sino-EU PerMed, IC2PerMed and EU-Africa PerMed foster the exchange with Latin American and Caribbean countries, China and African countries, respectively and build bridges between the EU and these regions.
