Descrizione del progetto
Un partenariato europeo sta innalzando il livello della ricerca e della formazione sulle neuroscienze a Kiev
C’è molto di vero nel detto «l’unione fa la forza» e la comunità scientifica non rappresenta un’eccezione. Molti istituti di levatura mondiale dotati di personale molto competente non hanno a propria disposizione le risorse necessarie per svolgere un ruolo sul palcoscenico mondiale della ricerca. Sfruttare il potenziale in questi istituti agevola un proficuo interscambio di idee e stimola la generazione di risultati, con vantaggi a valle per le comunità mediche e la salute individuale. Tale azione si configura inoltre come autosufficiente, in quanto la reputazione globale comporta maggiori finanziamenti. NEUROTWIN sta riunendo mentori provenienti da cinque paesi europei allo scopo di sostenere la promozione di un importante istituto di ricerca ucraino a centro di eccellenza in Neuroscienze cellulari e molecolari. Si prospetta un futuro luminoso per le neuroscienze e la neurologia in Ucraina.
Obiettivo
The overarching goal of the NEUROTWIN proposal is to re-establish the Bogomoletz Institute of Physiology (BIPH) in Kiev, Ukraine as an international centre for excellence in Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience. This goal is set against a sound background of the existing infrastructure, intellectual traditions and the highly educated manpower. That is the adherence to modern procedures and international research environment which all have to be strengthened to achieve the European dimension and to integrate the Institute into European networks. We shall capitalise on the existing potential of international networking for excellence in Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience research, through knowledge transfer and exchange of best practice between BIPH and leading institutions from the UK, Austria, Portugal, Sweden and Germany. The specific objectives of the proposal target several key areas. They include implementing modern research approaches to scientific excellence and innovation capacity of BIPH via infrastructural changes, large scale knowledge transfer between partners, increasing competitiveness of the BIPH researchers in fundraising from international grant bodies. The quality of the scientific output of BIPH will be improved through continuous training of research staff in academic writing and boosting the quality of post-graduate education. NEUROTWIN will help to boost communication with the policy makers and relevant stakeholders in Ukraine to advocate the importance of neuroscience and neurology research for the improvement of public health and biomedical education. NEUROTWIN will step up and stimulate the scientific excellence and innovation capacity in the field of Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, as well as strengthening scientific collaboration and international standing of the partners involved.
