Big Data Roadmap for

Personalised Medicine

By 2020, the EU should achieve

widespread benefits for patients and
citizens from personalised healthcare by
defining in 2015, and subsequently
executing a Data Strategy for
Personalised Medicine to drive policy,
regulatory, research and innovation
activities to establish a Europewide Data
ecosystem for personalised medicine.

A data ecosystem for PM

Data collection, management integration, sharing, analytics,
visualisation and decision support.
Technical infrastructure (software, networks, storage, high
performance computing, cloud computing)
Patient/citizen
generated data
(e.g. mHealth,
wellnes,
nutrition,
crowdsourcing)

Scientific data
(e.g. bio banks, omics databases,
clinical trials,
literature)
Medical data
(e.g.
genomics,
imaging,
labs)

Public
health data

Health
insurance
data

Concerted action is required

across three foundational sets
of policy actions

The biggest challenges are making

sense of the data and being able to
access it when and where it is
needed, whilst navigating complex
regulatory frameworks.
