The Pharmacogenomics Medical Devices Industry

The Pharmacogenomics Medical Devices Industry is a rapidly evolving field that integrates genetic information into clinical practice to enhance patient care.

The Pharmacogenomics Medical Devices Industry is composed of various specialised organisations that may deliver one or more steps in the clinical pathway or provide a complete end-to-end service. The organisations that form the foundation of the pharmacogenomics industry include commercial laboratories, medical device manufacturers (laboratory, scientific, software), innovators and service providers. These organisations operate across multiple industry and professional bodies, including:

  • Association of British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI)
  • Association of British Health Tech Industries (ABHI)
  • British In Vitro Diagnostics Association (BIVDA)
  • Institute of Biomedical Scientists (IBMS)

The UK-IPN has been formed to bring together these diverse stakeholders and promote the implementation of pharmacogenomic services in the UK.
