The VPH Initiative (VPH-I) constitutes of projects funded within the EU Seventh Framework Programme (FP7): Virtual Physiological Human. This initiative was preceded by a number of FP6 projects and other National and International projects/programmes.  These include:

EU FP7 VPH Projects funded by 7th FWP (Seventh Framework Programme) Virtual Physiological Human (ICT-2009.5.3.)

AIRPROM Airway Disease PRedicting Outcomes through Patient Specific Computational Modelling

FUSIMO Patient specific modelling and simulation of focused ultrasound in moving organs

GRANATUM A Social Collaborative Working Space Semantically Interlinking Biomedical Researchers, Knowledge And Data For The Design And Execution Of In-Silico Models And Experiments In Cancer Chemoprevention

INBIOMEDVision Promoting and Monitoring Biomedical Informatics in Europe- aims to become a European-wide initiative intended to monitor the evolution of the Biomedical Informatics field and address its scientific challenges by means of collaborative efforts performed by a broad group of experts with complementary perspectives on the field.

INTEGRATE Driving Excellence in Integrative Cancer Research through Innovative Biomedical Infrastructures

MYSPINE Functional prognosis simulation of patient-specific spinal treatment for clinical use

P-Medicine From data sharing and integration via VPH models to personalised medicine. P-Medicine will create an infrastructure that will facilitate the translation from current practice to personalized medicine. The project is designed to bring VPH methods to three sets of clinical trials treating various cancers (leukaemia, breast cancer, Wilms' tumour).
