Horizon Europe is the European Union (EU) funding programme for the period 2021 – 2027, which targets the sectors of research and innovation. The programme’s budget is around € 95.5 billion, of which € 5.4 billion is from NextGenerationEU to stimulate recovery and strengthen the EU’s resilience in the future, and € 4.5 billion is additional aid.
The progress in medicine over the past decades has been impressive. Additionally, personalised prevention, holds many promises and would allow a paradigm shift in the provision and management of health care if efforts are co-ordinated and concentrated at the European and global levels. However, more could be achieved while identifying individuals at higher risk of developing a particular condition early on and before symptoms occur. Specifically, more insight is needed on the underlying human biology, taking stock of the rich data accumulated from the biomedical sciences.
Better co-ordination is essential to foster and accelerate the development and adoption of personalised prevention strategies for the years to come. It will also be important to assess the value of prevention in terms of savings in the health system.
Proposals should address all of the following:
Proposals should engage with related research initiatives and provide input to prospective partners of the expected future European partnership on personalised medicine.
Proposals should encourage a patient-centred approach that empowers patients, promotes a culture of dialogue and openness between health professionals, patients and their families, and unleashes the potential of social innovation.
