eumusc.net is an information and surveillance network promoting a comprehensive European strategy to optimise musculoskeletal health. It addresses the prevention and management of MSC’s which is neither equitable nor a priority within most EU member states. It is focused on raising the awareness of musculoskeletal health and harmonising the care of rheumatic and musculoskeletal conditions. It is a 3 year project that began in February It is supported by the European Community (EC Community Action in the Field of Health ), the project is a network of institutions, researchers and individuals in 22 organisations across 17 countries, working with and through EULAR. eumusc.net: creating a web-based information resource to drive musculoskeletal health in Europe Disclaimer The Executive Agency for Health and Consumers is not responsible for any use that is made of the information contained within this publication
