The European Myeloma Network was established in 2003 by integrating 27 research institutions and 14 trial groups with
the intent to support development of novel diagnostics and therapies for multiple myeloma.
Now, EMN is legalised and ready to initiate and support co-operative clinical trials and laboratory research.
The Myeloma Stem Cell Network (MSCNET)
