As the Internet revolutionised access to information, the Grid will revolutionise access to computer applications and software systems. In general, this includes the highly important aspect of access to information resources such as Grid database systems (datadriven Grid applications), but we concentrate here on computational services providing numerical simulations for analysis, prediction and virtual prototyping to the medical sector ("bio-numerics"). The aims and objectives of the European Commission project GEMSS [1] will be presented and a description of the potential impact of the bio-numerics applications through examples from previous or ongoing European projects involving GEMSS partners, such as SimBio, COPHIT and BloodSim.
