Health EU initiative makes important steps towards strategic recognition and launches its Manifesto to unify Digital Healthcare in Europe!

In a competition with many excellent projects, and, as a result of the 2nd phase evaluation of Coordination and Support Actions for FET Flagships, Health EU was recognized as the leading project on Human Avatars and Digital Healthcare and is currently in a potential position for future funding.

Health EU management is looking with strong conviction into a bright future of a European mission on creating the first European Integrative Human Avatar Platform under the umbrella of Digital Healthcare enabled by Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things.

Today, we launch the Health EU Manifesto to unify all forces in medicine, biology, social sciences and engineering Europe under the visionary concept of Human Avatars for personalized, preventive and participatory healthcare. We invite all interested universities, research institutes, hospitals, industries and citizen/patient associations and other stakeholders to sign our Manifesto as an expression of direct support!

Health EU – Human avatars to prevent and cure diseases

Imagine a revolution in personalized healthcare and disease prevention system in Europe, based on human avatars of healthy individuals and patients for the prevention, interception and cure of disease.

Nothing less is the aim of Health EU (healthy you!), an advanced FET Flagship multidisciplinary research initiative in Europe aiming for a paradigm shift to healthcare and for a future sustainable healthcare system.
Stacks Image 3181
A revolution in human model development is now possible with Health EU by leveraging data from omics analyses, medical and imaging data, environmental and life style big data that are continuously updated by a multitude of biosensors at an unprecedented scale. With these complex data sets, first of their kind(s) human avatars will be built that can be personalised and used to prevent and cure each one’s own disease(s). Health EU will exploit most advanced organ-on-chip, smart nanosensor technologies and nanomedicine techniques to realise, validate and use such personalized human avatars in order to create a revolution in healthcare.

Health EU will boost European innovation and create disruptive advances related to big data analytics, smart micro/nano-systems, nanomedicine and new healthcare services and safer and more effective drugs. It will directly contribute to standards for privacy and security of healthcare data, jointly driven by technology and context. Health EU FET Flagship will provide a truly sustainable approach to healthcare and a better Quality of Life to European citizens.

Our Story

The Health EU FET Flagship is a star Flagship initiative born as a result of merging revolutionary ideas about the future of healthcare and leading European research groups from:
  • the past FET Flagship finalist ‘Guardian Angels for a Smarter Life’, and related most advanced edge of the cloud and Internet of Things sensor and smart system integration technology platforms, centered at IMEC, CEA-LETI and Fraunhofer
  • the Organ-on-Chip Flagship initiative led by the Dutch hDMT (Institute for human Organ and Disease Model Technologies) and its European network
  • a large number of groups and leaders formerly being involved in the Flagship Expression of Interest ‘The Future of Health Care: deep data, smart sensors, virtual patients and the Internet-of-Humans
  • the Nanomedicine European Technology platform
  • key partners from the Flag-Era Convergence project
  • many other European universities, research institutes, hospitals, industries and networks that decided to integrate and support Health EU
