Target group
The funding program is aimed at researchers working in the field of personalized medicine at universities, non-academic research institutions, and research departments in related sectors.
Funding goals
Personalized medicine (PM) represents a paradigm shift from the “one size fits all” approach to an optimized strategy for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disease for each person, based on their own unique biological characteristics.
