Sažetak
Abstract The vision of the future health care should be
a system in which patient care is consistently improved
through the use of information on the individual patient’s
genomes and their downstream products. This requires
the exploration of strategic relationships among various
disciplines such as life sciences, mathematics, physics,
chemistry, and information and communication technology,
and constellation thinking to propose new ways for
the diagnosis and therapy of diseases, integrated with a
planned trans-disciplinary scientific approach involving
all interested parties. Connecting high-quality trans-disciplinary
scientists on a pan-European level through programs
such as the Cooperation in Science and Technology
(COST) can support capacity building and increase the impact
of personalized medicine research on regulatory bodies,
decision makers, pharmaceutical and insurance companies,
and the paying public. Such group effort could
enable breakthrough scientific developments leading to
new concepts and products and thereby contributing to
the strengthening of Europe’s research and innovation capacity
while reforming the health care system.
