North-East Region, through Imago-Mol Cluster and supported by North-East RDA, has coordinated for the past 2 years un European Project that supports the activity of clusters in the domain of precision medicine, MEDIC-NEST.

The main result of this project is the creation of a meta-cluster, a voluntary, open and agile alliance of European clusters and business supporting organizations strongly believing in the role of inter-cluster, cross border and cross sectoral collaboration supporting the internationalization, growth and global competitiveness of the European Precision Medicine Ecosystem.
