About the BioMed Alliance
The Biomedical Alliance in Europe (BioMed Alliance) is a non-profit organisation representing 31 leading European research and medical societies uniting more than 400,000 researchers and healthcare professionals.
Mission
The BioMed Alliance is committed to promoting excellence and innovation in the European healthcare field with the goal of improving the health and well-being of all European citizens
It promotes the interests of researchers and healthcare professionals organised in not-for-profit scientific medical associations and organisations, across all medical disciplines.
Achievements
- The BioMed Alliance has developed the Code of Conduct for healthcare professionals and scientific organisations, approved by all members. The BioMed Alliance Code of Conduct sets out core principles to maintain and enhance professional independence, objectivity and scientific integrity.
- The BioMed Alliance has addressed important issues for biomedical and health research in the EU such as: the EU Data Protection Regulation, clinical trials, the implementation of Medical Devices Regulation, EU research budget, ambitious mechanisms to boost health research, and certain European Citizens’ Initiatives that could hamper research.
- The BioMed Alliance has achieved recognition and strength in negotiations at EU level. We advocated for the creation of a Scientific Panel for Health (SPH) under Horizon2020. The SPH is a science-led stakeholder platform aimed at providing a science-focussed analysis of research and innovation, identifying bottlenecks as well as opportunities, and making strategic recommendations.
- The BioMed Alliance has been promoting the development of unbiased criteria on continuous medical education. In addition, it has been providing expertise on the EU regulatory framework, particularly in relation to medical devices.
