Abstract

Ageing population is a fact in the European countries. How to improve the quality of life and sustain healthy ageing is one of the big challenges that deserve to be addressed considering the several and different aspects of life. But a person is a complex system and the last decades’ approach demonstrated that, even if general or cluster medicine reached good results, the new barriers to overcome are ad hoc solutions, tailored to the single to improve wellbeing and preserve decline. The Personalised Medicine call, SC1-PM-15-2017 Personalised coaching for well-being and care of people as they age, under the Horizon 2020 program, aims at developing and validating new ICT based approaches for empowering and motivating people. This section will introduce the reader to the European scenario, the challenge and the research and innovation action promoted under personalised medicine and the specific call.
