Process Map
The ATMP process map aims to clarify what needs to be addressed in what stage of ATMP development and by which expert stakeholder.

The process map activity germinated already in 2020 when it was noticed that different Swelife-ATMP projects were using different terminology to describe ATMP development and groups would develop resources ”Xx for ATMP”, where it was not clear that multiple expert stakeholders were required to fulfill those tasks. Stakeholders involved in the development since 2021 include Anders Kvanta, Helder Andre, Per Ljungman, Aud Solvberg, Heidi Ekelund, Dag Larsson, Pontus Blomberg, Michael Wagner Christiansen, Miriam Idar, Sharon Longhurst, Ida Duprez, Luisa Lundin, Björn Skölving, Joanna Applequist, Jan Talts, Catharina Brandsten, Ulrica Eistrand, Angelica Loskog, Martina Johannesson, Axel Ståhlbom, Jenny Gustafsson, Juliana Kovacka, Adam Wegelius, Jozsef Vasi, Alexandra Patriksson, Kinga Täckström and Ola Tuvesson. Thank you all for your engagement!
