INHERITED NEUROMETABOLIC DISEASES INFORMATION NETWORK
http://www.innermed.eu/
This document arises from the project InNerMeD-I-Network which has received funding from the European Union, in the framework of the Health Programme
Project Overview
The Project "Inherited NeuroMetabolic Disease Information Network" (InNerMeD-I-Network, 2012 12 12, Second Health Programme 2008-2013) is an European project, started on the 1st of April 2013.

Why InNerMedInherited NeuroMetabolic Diseases (iNMDs) represent an important group of Rare Diseases constituted by genetic metabolic disorders showing clinical neurologic/cognitive symptoms at any time during the progression.
Data on iNMDs are scarce as well as poorly disseminated outside the restricted group of experts that are also inadequately connected.

Why InNerMed (2)
There is a lack of awareness about these conditions that can delay the diagnosis and the start of the treatment, with consequent tragic results.
Increasing awareness is therefore the first crucial step in fighting these conditions.
This document arises from the project InNerMeD-I-Network which has received funding from the European Union, in the framework of the Health Programme
InNerMed aims to create a multimedial network of information targeted on research, diagnosis and treatment of inherited neurometabolic diseases (iNMDs) and based on the collection and exchange of validated information among scientific communities, health professionals, patients, patient associations public health authorities, pharmaceutical companies and other interested parties.

General Objectives
The general objectives of the InNerMeD project are:• to increase the current knowledge on iNMDs• to speed up the timely and precise identification of patients, who thus may benefit from the available (experimental and marketed) treatments • to favour biomedical research.

1) to create an Information Network in the field of iNMDs aimed at:
• increasing awareness on these conditions among physicians, patiients and general stakeholders to anticipate diagnosis and, when available, supply an adequate therapy;
• strengthening research capacities and foster technological innovation in favour of the population affected by iNMDs;
.
detailed Objectives (1)
• providing practical support for sharing experiences at global levels on iNMDs;
• disseminating knowledge on clinical and experimental approaches for diagnosis and treatment of iNMDs, in order to make patients and families empowered and aware as real actors for the correct management of the disease.

Detailed Objectives (2)2) To create a web-based platform with user-
friendly access.
Through it all validated information on iNMDs, therapies, diagnosis and research will be collected, shared and then disseminated to the Network participants and stakeholders. The Platform will also act to connect the Network nodes, to stimulate collaborative working and to promote the networking activities.
