Abstract
Aim: Research and innovation (R&I) actors are fundamental in shortening the translational gap of personalized medicine in health systems. In the context of the 'Integrating China in the International Consortium for Personalized Medicine' project, we aimed to map the current landscape of R&I actors in the field of personalized medicine in the EU and China. Methods: A two-phase desk research study was conducted. Results: We identified 78 R&I actors. Research and technology organizations were the most frequent in both the EU and China. The identified R&I actors were active in a wide range of fields. The EU and China have many different R&I actors addressing personalized medicine-related issues, with few characteristics in common. Conclusion: More efforts are needed to ensure these R&I actors are encouraged to work together to bridge each other's gaps.
期刊介绍:
Personalized Medicine (ISSN 1741-0541) translates recent genomic, genetic and proteomic advances into the clinical context. The journal provides an integrated forum for all players involved - academic and clinical researchers, pharmaceutical companies, regulatory authorities, healthcare management organizations, patient organizations and others in the healthcare community. Personalized Medicine assists these parties to shape thefuture of medicine by providing a platform for expert commentary and analysis.
The journal addresses scientific, commercial and policy issues in the field of precision medicine and includes news and views, current awareness regarding new biomarkers, concise commentary and analysis, reports from the conference circuit and full review articles.
