HEALTH NCP-Net 2.0 is jointly organising (with BBMRI-ERIC, EATRIS-ERIC, ECRIN and ELIXIR) a webinar to learn about the aims and activities of these research infrastructures (RIs) and how to involve and benefit from them within a Horizon 2020 project.
The second part will be a Q&A session.
Presenters:
Research and innovation lie at the heart of Europe’s economic strategy and make a critical contribution to the development of its society and cultures.
The aim of this workshop is to explore ways in which the return on investment in research can be assessed and evaluated. The workshop will also address the question of the future of RIs, the conditions of their success and the effectiveness of their dialogue with society.
The inaugural Keystone Symposium About Rare Diseases will take place at the Vienna BioCenter from 11 to 14 November 2018.
The conference will examine the current and future bottlenecks to gene discovery, disease modeling, and therapeutic approaches for the estimated 7,000 known rare diseases, and suggest strategies to accelerate progress in this regard.
CORBEL's next Annual General Meeting will take place from 16 to 17 October in Paris.
The CORBEL project aims to establish shared services between the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures Biological and Medical Sciences Research Infrastructures (ESFRI BMS RIs)–which includes ECRIN–for the biomedical research community.
The next CORBEL Medical Infrastructure Users Forum (www.corbel-project.eu) will be held in Paris on 15 October, 2018.
The forum is meant to promote collaboration between research communities, funding bodies and medical research infrastructures; this year the event will focus on emerging technologies in the context of big data and personalised/stratified medicine.
The conference will represent the opportunity to raise awareness of medical RIs and exchange with scientific communities.
The next EuroScience Open Forum (ESOF) will be held in Toulouse, France from 9 to 14 July 2018. ESOF is a biennial interdisciplinary general science meeting and the highlight of the European science calendar.
The EU project C-COMEND offers PhD and Postdocs the opportunity to join a free course on “Translational Research and Development“.
The course consists of an introductory e‑learning course (~ 24 hours student investment time) in July, followed by a 5-day, face-to-face workshop from 9-13 October 2017 in Berlin.
Speakers are from industry and academia and include:
The European Research Infrastructure for Translational Medicine (EATRIS) is organising its third bi-annual conference, “Translational Medicine 2017” from 24 to 26 September 2017 at Corinthia Hotel in Prague, Czech Republic.
This event, open to a wide range of stakeholders including academic researchers, funders, industry players and regulators, will bring together international experts to discuss the latest advancements in translational medicine.
