Project description
Europe-Canada personalised medicine connection
Your unique genetic make-up can be used to assess your risk of developing disease, predict disease course, and accordingly tailor treatment. This is the basis of personalised medicine, also known as genomic medicine or precision medicine but adoption of personalised medicine in clinical practice remains low. The EU-funded EUCAN-Connect aims to change this by contributing to the creation of better personalised health strategies. The project will start by analysing the results of large-scale cohort studies conducted in Europe and Canada but most data repositories are scattered. The project aims to ensure large-scale uptake and to deliver solutions for distributed, low-cost data harvesting and preservation, as well as international governance.
