The EMA is the agency dedicated to promoting and protecting human and animal health in the European Union. This agency is responsible for the scientific assessment of ATMPS. Because of the complexity of ATMPs, the EMA has a unique responsibility to provide scientific evaluation of new and existing treatments, not just for EU members but also for countries in the EEA. The European Medicines agency only covers medicines, not medical devices.
