H2020-SC1-2016-2017: Personalised Medicine

EC Horizon 2020 logo

The European Commission Horizon 2020: Societal Challenges will shortly be inviting proposals, under the health, demographic change and wellbeing work programme, for its H2020-CS1-2016-2017 Personalised Medicine Call. The first deadlines for this call are 13 April 2016.

The headline goal of the 'Health, Demographic Change and Well-being' Societal Challenge is better health for all. Its main policy objectives are to improve health and well-being outcomes, to promote healthy and active ageing, to promote market growth, job creation, and the EU as a global leader in the health area. The challenges to this goal derive from the ageing of European population and lifestyle patterns, which, if not actively managed through a lifecourse approach, will increase the burden of chronic diseases on individuals, on existing health and care systems and on society. This will also result in increase of public expenditure coupled with labour force and productivity losses.

This call includes topics such as:
