Objectif The GEOD project proposes the organization of 5 conference events (the European Human Genome Summit in Sestri Levante, Italy, and four Genetics Open Day conferences in London, Milan, Heidelberg and Barcelona) included in the European Science and Technology week, as well as a European Award for Journalism in Genetics to improve the understanding among European citizens of the social effects of research on the human genome and promote the press coverage of these issues. This is a sector unlike any other in the direct and deeply personal effects it has on the life of citizens. Moreover, the ethical and juridical framework for genetic research is currently being elaborated in most European member states and the decisions to be made in regulating this sector will profoundly affect the development of both academic and industrial research in Europe in the coming years. The project intends to develop a larger and informed debate on these topics with the active participation of the media to reach the highest number of citizens. The events outlined in the project should be seen as a first step in establishing a European interdisciplinary forum on the effects of this research and open to specialists of different disciplines from lawyers to journalists and scientist Programme(s) FP5-HUMAN POTENTIAL - Programme for research, technological development and demonstration on "Improving the human research potential and the socio-economic knowledge base" (1998-2002) Thème(s) Data not available Appel à propositions Data not available Régime de financement ACM - Preparatory, accompanying and support measures Coordinateur EUROPEAN GENETICS FOUNDATION Contribution de l’UE Aucune donnée Adresse Piazza Campetto 2/8, Palazzo del Melograno 16123 GENOVA Italie Voir sur la carte Coût total Aucune donnée Participants (4) Trier par ordre alphabétique Trier par contribution de l’UE Tout développer Tout réduire CANCER RESEARCH INSTITUTE Espagne Contribution de l’UE Aucune donnée Adresse KM 2,7,Gran Via s/n, Km 2,7 08907 HOSPITALET DEL LLOBREGAT Voir sur la carte Coût total Aucune donnée EUROPEAN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY ORGANISATION Allemagne Contribution de l’UE Aucune donnée Adresse Meyerhofstrasse 1 69117 HEIDELBERG Voir sur la carte Coût total Aucune donnée HUGO (LONDON) Royaume-Uni Contribution de l’UE Aucune donnée Adresse One Park Square Westt NW1 4LJ London Voir sur la carte Coût total Aucune donnée PROGRESS EDUCATIONAL TRUST Royaume-Uni Contribution de l’UE Aucune donnée Adresse Gray's Inn Road, 140 WC1X 8AX London Voir sur la carte Coût total Aucune donnée
