Research and innovation for brain health throughout life

Projektbeschreibung

Geschulte Gehirne für die Hirngesundheit

Die Bevölkerung unserer Welt wird nicht jünger. Sie altert und setzt unsere Gesundheitssysteme unter Druck, da altersbedingte Krankheiten geheilt und gelindert werden müssen. In Europa besteht ein Bedarf an Innovation, Wissen und Fachleuten, die in der Lage sind, bedeutende Veränderungen auf den Weg zu bringen, um die Vorhersage, Frühdiagnose und Vorbeugung neurodegenerativer Erkrankungen zu verbessern, und letztlich die Gesundheit des Gehirns ein Leben lang zu erhalten. In diesem Sinne wird das EU-finanzierte Projekt Neuro-Innovation ein Doktoratsprogramm zur Ausbildung neuer internationaler Fachleute einrichten, die in Zukunft die innovative Forschung auf dem Gebiet der Gehirngesundheit anführen werden. Es wird sich auf Innovation und Ethik in den Neurowissenschaften sowie deren Auswirkungen konzentrieren und Wissen aus den Neurowissenschaften, dem Innovationsmanagement, den Sozialwissenschaften und weiteren Bereichen kombinieren, um ein breites Spektrum an übertragbaren Kompetenzen zu gewährleisten.

Ziel

The Neuro-Innovation doctoral programme is a new, globally unique effort to train international experts who are wanted in the European job market and future research leaders in brain health innovation. These experts will learn to solve innovation-related questions in personalized medicine that focuses on the prediction, prevention and early diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases and epilepsy. They will have skills to develop novel treatments and commercialize their research results in the form of new technologies, models, and methods in the European and global markets. Health care is globally faced with a growing burden of major age-associated diseases. Neuro-innovation and impact as well as neuro-ethics are needed to survive these challenges and maintain brain health throughout life. This will be gained by offering world class research-oriented PhD training that combines neurosciences with innovation management, social sciences and law, and computer science and applied physics. In depth substance knowledge and methodology training will be topped up with well-planned transferable skills curricula providing the graduates with skills needed in changing career paths after their initial researcher training. Other means to achieve training goals include well-planned mobility periods to international research environments of partner universities, meaningful secondments with companies, and frequent exposure to intersectoral activities in training. The Neuro-Innovation doctoral programme will take the researcher training to the next level in terms of research excellence developed within two regional health innovation ecosystems that benefits both parties. The Neuro-Innovation programme will create critical mass for a new talent hub for university-industry collaboration. Several measures will be taken to attract female and minority candidates, and applicants from new EU countries and those that do not have strong PhD training in the research filed of this programme.
