As part of the inauguration of the Hamburg Center for 3R Research (HC3R) , the Medical Faculty of the University of Hamburg is inviting proposals for funding for two innovative research projects in the field of the 3R Principle (Replace, Reduce, Refine). The aim of the call is to support the development and establishment of new scientific approaches that replace animal experiments, reduce their number or make their implementation more animal-friendly. Projects may include methodological developments, new models or concepts that contribute to the implementation of the 3R concept in biomedical research. Funding will be provided for two research projects with clearly defined themes and time frames, with a maximum of €100,000 each for the entire project duration of up to two years (for personnel and material costs).

As part of a scientific study, ZB MED (Information Centre for Life Sciences) is conducting a survey on the topic of “Uncertainty in Research”. Aim of this survey is to gain insight into how different forms of uncertainty relate to scientific work- understanding the role of stable access to specialist databases such as PubMed, the use of emerging AI-based tools, and which types of uncertainty are perceived as having the greatest impact on everyday research activities. The results will be used to inform the further development and alignment of infrastructure services with the needs of the research community.

Aktuelle Ausgabe „wissen + forschen“ zum Thema Visionäre Medizinforschung
Die Medizin der Zukunft hat - auch wenn der erste Eindruck es glauben macht - nichts mit unendlichen Weiten und fernen Galaxien zu tun. Zur Präzisionsmedizin gehört die CAR-T-Zelltherapie, die bereits seit 2019 erfolgreich im UKE angewandt wird. Dabei wird das Immunsystem mobilisiert, sich gegen bösartige Krebszellen zu wehren. Unterm Mikroskop sieht die Auseinandersetzung wie ein Geschehen im Weltraum aus. Die Immuntherapie ist ein Beispiel für die Medizin der Zukunft, an der im UKE intensiv geforscht wird. Weitere finden Sie hier und in der neuen Ausgabe unseres Magazins wissen+forschen.
