IEEE is the world's largest non-profit technical professional association dedicated to advancing technology for the benefit of humanity. Their +400,000 members in 160 countries inspire a global community through highly cited publications, conferences, technology standards, and professional and educational activities. In Europe, IEEE has created a Public Policy Program in order to leverage IEEE's technology policy-related insights and provide European institutions and other policy stakeholders with independent and unbiased advice and recommendations on public policy matters, including in the area of health.

IEEE members are always keen on having exchanges with policy makers and policy stakeholders from diverse associations, and on elaborating further on any points raised in their policy documents. For contacts please email: m.pellegrino@ieee.org Website: www.ieee.org/about/ieee-europe
