Our mission is to improve the health of individuals by conducting high-impact research uncovering disease mechanisms and thereby promote precision medicine and clinical translation of research.
In this activity, we will train new generations of scientists and passionately engage citizens in the values of science and precision medicine.
This brochure from 2022 describes some of our main scientific projects and achievements during the past few years and covers our key statistics. It also provides detailed information about our research programmes, infrastructure platforms, research training and other important aspects of FIMM.
As a translational institute, FIMM drives human-based research that has a profile of excellence at the highest level globally in terms of traditional metrics of publication, as well as leadership of international research efforts. We aim for our research to deliver, in a local context, direct health impact by bringing the results of research efforts to the Finnish population. Within the field of molecular medicine, FIMM focuses on ‘Grand Challenges’ that pursue our overall mission.
