THE PROJECT CONSORTIUM

• The Department of Internal Medicine at the University of Perugia (Italy) is coordinator of the project. Its activity builds upon extensive work in the field of diabetes research and clinical practice, receiving significant co-funding from Regione Umbria for the establishment of the Umbria Diabetes Register, an activity that will proceed in parallel with the development of B.I.R.O.

• The University of Dundee (Scotland), Joanneum Research Institute (Austria) and University of Bergen (Norway) are high caliber partners with an extensive experience in the field of diabetes management, built over a solid track record in the coordination of regional and national programs involving the development of diabetes information systems

• Participation of institutions from Romania, Malta and Cyprus will allow for B.I.R.O. to explore new ways to engage New Member States and Accessing Countries in the creation of permanent diabetes registers that are crucial for the collection of reliable information at the European level
