VPH Initiative Day

Location: Brussels (Université Libre de Bruxelles, ERASME Campus)

The VPH Network of Excellence is holding its first VPH-Initiative working day supported by the European Commission ICT for Health / DG Information Society and Media.

The day will be dedicated to the VPH Initiative, bringing together the VPH NoE participants and key representatives from the 14 FP7 projects currently active in the VPH programme. Participants will include members of the VPH-I working group and project coordinators. The VPH-I day will feature poster and networking sessions from each project, presentations from selected NoE leaders, a talk on future funding and discussion on integration of projects under the VPH umbrella. Members of the Scientific, Clinical and Industrial Advisory Boards of the VPH NoE will be invited to this day as well as General and Associate Members, with a view to encourage networking between all communities.

The NoE can contribute to the travel and accommodation expenses of some General Members and there will be a small number of bursaries available for those presenting at events. The selection process will be on a first come, first served basis. For further details please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
