Projektbeschreibung
Ein europaweites Programm zur Wegbereitung für neue medizinische Ansätze
Die COVID-19-Pandemie hat die Schlüsselrolle von forschenden Mediziner/innen („Physician-Scientists“) bei der Suche nach innovativen Lösungen im Bereich der Medizin und Gesundheitsversorgung gezeigt. Das EU-finanzierte Projekt EMERALD bezweckt die Einrichtung eines internationalen Doktorandenprogramms zur Förderung von Physician-Scientists, die sich für Fortschritte in der Forschung, personalisierten Medizin und Gesundheitsversorgung in Europa einsetzen. Im Rahmen dieses Programms werden 24 Ärztinnen und Ärzte ausgewählt, um an sieben europäischen Exzellenzzentren für Biowissenschaften und Biomedizin in innovativer Forschung zu promovieren. Die Kompetenzen und Kenntnisse, die sie dabei erwerben, werden dazu beitragen, die Lücke zwischen der Laborforschung und der Krankenversorgung zu schließen.
Ziel
Addressing the increased need for innovative solutions in medicine and healthcare, as we are witnessing during the current worldwide pandemic, requires more than ever the rise of the unique professional profile of physician-scientists, combining cutting-edge research and technology with medicine. There are several MDPhD programmes in European countries and institutions, but there is none Europe-wide. The EMERALD International Doctoral Programme aims to nurture excellent physician-scientists to advance research, personalised medicine and health care in Europe. Following fair, merit-based, and inclusive recruitment, the programme will hire 24 medical doctors to carry out a PhD in cutting-edge research in seven European centres of excellence in life sciences and biomedicine. The EMERALD fellows will experience mobility across laboratories, sectors and countries, and they will benefit from international, stimulating and creative environments, advanced training, career development and mentoring programmes, and access to high-end technologies and facilities. Importantly, they will benefit from the advanced training on the latest technologies, digital skills, open science and innovation, and from the mentoring provided by the EMERALD programme, with the opportunity to build valuable international networks with different actors in academia, hospitals, industry, patients´ organisations and NGOs. EMERALD counts on the impressive support and collaboration of 37 partner organisations from 10 European countries. The trained physician-scientists will be equipped with skills and knowledge to tackle relevant clinical and research questions, bridging the gap between laboratory research and caring of patients, and ultimately pursuing new approaches to diagnose and treat human diseases.
