Description du projet
Recherche d’excellence en génie biomédical à Bucarest
La stratégie nationale roumaine en matière de R&D soutient le développement du génie biomédical (application des principes de conception et d’analyse de l’ingénierie aux systèmes biologiques et aux technologies biomédicales). Dans ce contexte, le projet eBio-hub, financé par l’UE, mettra en place un centre de recherche en génie biomédical, baptisé eBio-hub, au sein de l’université Politechnica de Bucarest (UPB) en vue de débloquer et de promouvoir une recherche d’excellence en génie biomédical. Le projet formera un groupe de recherche solide afin, d’une part, de tirer parti des connaissances existantes à l’UPB et les intégrer à la recherche locale et à l’expertise clinique de l’université de Bucarest, de l’université de médecine et de pharmacie Carol Davila et des hôpitaux locaux et d’autre part, d’utiliser l’infrastructure de recherche nouvellement créée (INOVABIOMED).
Objectif
The ambitious aim of the project is to establish eBio-hub- research centre in Biomedical Engineering within University „Politechnica” of Bucharest (UPB) leaded by Era Chair holder. The goal of the eBio-hub project is to unlock and foster excellent research in biomedical engineering, capitalizing the existing knowledge in UPB and integrating with local research and clinical expertise from University of Bucharest, Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy and local hospitals as well as making use of the newly created research infrastructure (INOVABIOMED) by setting up a strong research group and attracting top academics in the field, rising the competitiveness of UPB research in the European Research Area (ERA). The developing of biomedical engineering - a discipline that applies engineering principles of design and analysis to biological systems and biomedical technologies- is in line with the Romanian National Strategy for R&D. The Chair and the eBio-hub centre will address the main barriers faced in UPB such as lack of institutional organization in linking UPB research teams with different expertise and linking the existing UPB research teams with other local research institution, lack of financing, and practice not in line with open recruitment policy. By establishing a Chair Holder with excellent research credentials and leadership competences, by creating a research team with broad expertise and wide network for collaboration, will greatly improve the research culture and research performance at UPB. Sustainability will be granted by research funding procurement for projects, structured cooperation with local or international industrial and public research and educational entities, establishment of a new study field in the doctoral programs at UPB, PhD summer school and other training programs. By setting a best practice example and through a well-thought outreach campaign the project will stimulate structural changes throughout UPB.
