Better Medicine for the 21st Century.
In collaboration with King’s College and other academic institutions, the European Society will soon offer e-learning courses and CME learning opportunities.
The world is experiencing a substantial paradigm shift in the way medicine is practiced. There is an increasing focus on a prevention model, ideally stopping chronic disease and its associated risk factors from ever developing.
We are working with Ageing Research at King’s College, the Institute for Systems Biology and other groups to establish educational programs in preventive and predictive P4 medicine.
Existing preventive medicine initiatives and resources from around the world are listed below.
