Dear TranSYS supporters, Colleagues and Friends,
As we gear up for the closing event of the European Training Network TranSYS on Personalized Medicine, from June 19-20, 2024, in Belgrade, Serbia, I am excited to extend a warm invitation to you. This gathering promises to assemble key stakeholders to delve into pivotal discussions.
Sessions will feature esteemed representatives from EU-funded projects or institutes, converging to deliberate on the landscape and regional needs pertaining to “”from bench to patient management and care “ and “from bench to implementation for a more precise medicine and health – building bridges, tearing down silos.” Hence, we envisage an engaging discourse that draws insights from diverse perspectives, including industry leaders and patient advocacy groups, fostering interaction with the audience comprising representatives from various stakeholders. This dynamic exchange will be further enriched by scientific presentations from data scientists and bioinformaticians, adding depth and breadth to the discussion. Together, we aim to explore innovative strategies and collaborative approaches aimed at surmounting barriers and accelerating the translation of precision medicine from theory to tangible impact.
In an exciting collaboration, the TranSYS event has been seamlessly integrated into the prestigious Belgrade Bioinformatics Conference (BelBi), hosted by the Serbian Bioinformatics Society (BirBi). BelBi, renowned as an international nexus for top experts, serves as the beacon of the Bioeconomy Hub in Europe, BIO4 Campus, nestled in the heart of Belgrade.
On behalf of the entire BelBi organization and the TranSYS management team, I extend a cordial invitation for you or your representative to join us in Belgrade!
Warm regards, Kristel Van Steen (coordinator of TranSYS)

Day 2: Building bridges and tearing down silos
Imagine the vast landscape of independently funded EU projects and initiatives, each with its own objectives and ambitions. Yet, amidst this diversity, there is often a common thread of shared goals and aims. It is an enormous undertaking to bridge these initiatives and to break down the silos that often inhibit collaboration. But it is a challenge worth taking on. How do we effectively merge these efforts, especially when they align so closely? This is where the synergy of minds comes into play. We’re calling upon dissemination and implementation scientists to join forces with us. Through a dynamic panel discussion and scientific pitches, our aim is to unravel the complexities, and pinpoint the critical needs and untapped opportunities that lie within. TranSYS’ future mission? To propel learning health systems forward, to accelerate the implementation of groundbreaking research in precision medicine and health. This isn’t just about talk; it’s about action. We invite you to be a part of this journey as we navigate towards cohesive collaboration and tangible progress in precision health. Together, let’s carve a path towards impactful change.
