About EAPM
The European Alliance for Personalised Medicine (EAPM) , launched in March 2012, brings together European healthcare experts and
patient advocates involved with major chronic diseases.

The aim is to improve patient care by accelerating the development, delivery and uptake of personalised medicine and diagnostics,
As the European discussion on personalised medicine gathers pace. EAPM is a response to the need for wider understanding of
priorities and a more integrated approach among distinct lay and professional stakeholders.
The mix of EAPM members provides extensive scientific, clinical, caring and training expertise in personalised medicine and
diagnostics, across patient groups, academia, health professionals and industry. Relevant departments of the European Commission
have observer status, as does the EMA.
EAPM is funded by its members.
