Drug design and genome-based medicines : EU-supported research in genomics and biotechnology for health : Sixth Framework Programme (2002-2006)

The title of this catalogue embodies two ideas: the development of new, safer and more effective drugs, and the exploitation for therapeutic purposes of new data coming from genomics. Research into drug design and genome-based medicines formed part of the EU's Sixth Framework Programme (2002-2006), and the purpose of this catalogue is to demonstrate the activities initiated over the duration of the programme and present the initial results obtained. Research participants in this area include academic and clinical scientists as well as industry and small and medium-sized enterprises.
