Besides general information about ICPerMed activities and achievements towards the implementation of the ICPerMed Action Plan, the State of the Art Report 2018 provides an analysis of funding activities collected and presented in the ICPerMed Mapping Database, which is online since June 2018.

With this yearly report, ICPerMed seeks to facilitate the follow-up of the development of personalised medicine research and its implementation throughout Europe and beyond. It describes the strategies and achievements ICPerMed delivers on its objectives and serves as an instrument to monitor the efforts of and steps taken towards the implementation of the ICPerMed Action Plan.
