About The NoE

BIOPATTERN integrates the research efforts of 31 institutions across Europe to tackle and reduce fragmentation in the new field of biopattern and bioprofile analysis which will underpin eHealthcare in the post genome era. It brings together leading researchers in medical informatics and bioinformatics from academia, the healthcare sector and industry in a new way, harnessing expertise and information to put Europe at the forefront of eHealth.

BIOPATTERN aims to identify how bioprofile could be exploited for individualised healthcare such as disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Its ultimate goal is to become a Virtual Research Institute recognised as a worldleading scientific resource.
