BMFTR Förderung von Postdoc Starting Grants im Förderschwerpunkt „Zukunft eHealth“, erste Antragsstufe: 17/11/2025
Ziel dieser Förderrichtlinie ist es, durch innovative In-silico-Ansätze den Erkenntnisgewinn in der biomedizinischen Forschung voranzutreiben und die Prävention, Diagnose und Therapie von Krankheiten zu verbessern. Gleichzeitig sollen vielversprechende Talente aus den quantitativen, rechnergestützten Wissenschaften kurz vor oder nach der Promotion für eine akademische Karriere in dem interdisziplinären Forschungsfeld eHealth gewonnen werden. Diesen soll damit eine weitere methodische Profilierung und der Erwerb relevanter Schlüsselqualifikationen wie dem Projektmanagement ermöglicht werden, um damit die Voraussetzungen zu schaffen, sich im Anschluss um weitere eigene Drittmittel und/oder eine Nachwuchsgruppe zu bewerben.
