ICPerMed brings together more than 40 funding bodies from EU member states and beyond. Members include public and private ‘not-for-profit’ health research funding and policy organisations. Other organisations or initiatives can join ICPerMed’s stakeholder group.
ICPerMed’s members map is a derivative of World Map for Web Data Visualizations by Al MacDonald, used under CC BY-SA 3.0.
There is no monetary commitment required to join ICPerMed but members commit to working actively towards achieving the overall aims of the Consortium. In addition, members will be expected to report annually on their activities and to actively participate in the running of the initiative.
ICPerMed originates from a European initiative. Therefore currently most members are from Europe. But as personalised health care is important globally, ICPerMed seeks to include more international partners in the coming years.
