Krebs ist für Patientinnen und Patienten eine sehr belastende und bedrohliche Erkrankung. Zwar steht heute ein breites Spektrum an Behandlungsstrategien zur Verfügung, doch sind die meisten Tumorerkrankungen im fort­geschrittenen Stadium nach wie vor unheilbar. Eine der wichtigsten Aufgaben der Krebsforschung ist es daher, gezieltere und wirksamere Strategien in Prävention, Diagnose und Therapie von Krebserkrankungen zu erforschen und zu entwickeln. Um die zahlreichen vielversprechenden Entwicklungen in der Krebsforschung in ihrer hohen Dynamik aufzugreifen und die Forschung auf die Ansätze mit dem größten Potenzial zu fokussieren, hat das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) gemeinsam mit weiteren Partnern die Nationale Dekade gegen Krebs (NDK) ausgerufen (www.Dekade-gegen-Krebs.de). Die Prävention ist einer der zentralen Schwerpunkte in der NDK. Der beste Weg in der Krebsbekämpfung ist es, Erkrankungen gar nicht erst entstehen zu lassen oder sie möglichst früh zu erkennen.

This topic aims at supporting activities that are enabling or contributing to one or several impacts of destination 1 “Staying healthy in a rapidly changing society”. To that end, proposals under this topic should aim at delivering results that are directed at, tailored towards and contributing to several of the following expected outcomes:

• Citizens have access to and use effective personalised prevention schemes and health counselling (including through digital means) that take into account their individual characteristics and situation. Individuals can be assigned to particular groups based on their characteristics, and receive advice adequate to that group.

• Health professionals use effective, tried and tested tools to facilitate their work when advising both patients and healthy individuals. Public health programme owners gain insight into the specificities and characteristics of disease clusters within the population through stratification. This can then be used to facilitate the identification of population groups with elevated risk of developing certain diseases and improve the programmes, update them and design effective strategies for optimal solutions and interventions.

Europa braucht einen leistungsfähigen, offenen und für die besten Talente aus aller Welt attraktiven gemeinsamen Forschungsraum, der zur Stärkung der internationalen Wettbewerbsfähigkeit Europas und zur Lösung globaler Herausforderungen beiträgt. Nach wie vor gibt es im Europäischen Forschungsraum (EFR) zwischen den Mitgliedstaaten Unterschiede hinsichtlich ihrer Leistungsfähigkeit in Forschung und Innovation. Das jährlich erscheinende Innovation Scoreboard der Europäischen Union weist neben Innovationsführern und starken Innovatoren auch Länder mit einem geringeren Innovationspotenzial aus. Besonders viele Länder in Mittelost- und Südosteuropa fallen bei der Beteiligung an europäischen Forschungs- und Innovationsprogrammen hinter den europäischen Innovationsführern zurück. Damit Europa als Ganzes sein Potenzial in Zukunft noch besser ausschöpfen kann, sollen diese Länder stärker an den europäischen Forschungsraum herangeführt und beteiligt werden. Dieses Ziel kann durch die Vernetzung und Kooperation mit erfahrenen und innovationsstarken Partnereinrichtungen unterstützt werden.

Lebenswissenschaftliche Innovationen sind eine wesentliche Grundlage für medizinischen Fortschritt und eine gute Gesundheitsversorgung. Damit solche Innovationen gelingen, sind eine Ausrichtung der Forschung an den Bedarfen der Menschen und ein effizienter Transfer von Ergebnissen in die Praxis notwendig.

Hinsichtlich des Transfererfolgs sind lebenswissenschaftliche Forschungsprojekte mit zahlreichen Herausforderungen konfrontiert – darunter lange Entwicklungszeiten, großes Ausfallrisiko, regulatorische Hürden und hoher Kapitalbedarf. Daher ist es von besonderer Bedeutung, potenzialträchtige Ideen frühzeitig zu erkennen, geeignete Persönlichkeiten als Treiber zu finden und die Ideen ab initio markt- und bedarfsgerecht zu entwickeln. Nur so können die Herausforderungen frühzeitig lösungsorientiert antizipiert und Ideen erfolgreich zu Innovationen transformiert werden. Hier setzt die Förderinitiative GO-Bio initial des Bundesministeriums für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) an.

Von Forschung und Entwicklung gehen wesentliche Impulse für die Wohlstandssicherung und Innovationsfähigkeit unserer Gesellschaft aus. Dazu tragen im deutschen Wissenschaftssystem die Fachhochschulen (FH)/Hochschulen für Angewandte Wissenschaften (HAW) bei, die über ein hohes anwendungsnahes Forschungs- und Entwicklungspotenzial für den Wissens- und Technologietransfer in Unternehmen verfügen. Auf nationaler Ebene unterstützt das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) durch das Programm „Forschung an Fachhochschulen“ die anwendungsorientierte Forschung an FH/HAW. Innerhalb des europäischen Forschungsraums sollen die FH/HAW ihr Forschungspotenzial jedoch noch weiter ausschöpfen können.

Südostasien ist Europas drittgrößter Handelspartner weltweit und eine hochdynamische Region mit zunehmender Bedeutung für Europa auch im Bereich der Forschung und Innovation. Zudem sind europäische Unternehmen die größten Direktinvestoren in Südostasien und die zunehmende Integration der Märkte und Stabilität in der Region, basierend auf den Abkommen der ASEAN-Staatengemeinschaft, wird die Bedeutung der Region für Europa weiter stärken.

Die Fördermaßnahme erfolgt im Rahmen der Strategie der Bundesregierung zur Internationalisierung von Bildung, Wissenschaft und Forschung (2017) sowie des Aktionsplans des Bundesministeriums für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) „Internationale Kooperation“ und soll dazu dienen, gemeinsame Forschungs- und Innovationsprojekte von gegenseitigem Interesse zu fördern und damit zu einer Intensivierung der wissenschaftlich-technologischen Zusammenarbeit zwischen Europa und Südostasien beizutragen.

Europa braucht einen leistungsfähigen, offenen und für die besten Talente aus aller Welt attraktiven gemeinsamen Forschungsraum, der zur Stärkung der internationalen Wettbewerbsfähigkeit Europas und zur Lösung globaler Herausforderungen beiträgt. Nach wie vor gibt es im Europäischen Forschungsraum (EFR) zwischen den Mitgliedstaaten Unterschiede hinsichtlich ihrer Leistungsfähigkeit in Forschung und Innovation. Das jährlich erscheinende Innovation Scoreboard der Europäischen Union weist neben Innovationsführern und starken Innovatoren auch Länder mit einem geringeren Innovationspotenzial aus.
