ERASysApp
The full title of the ERASysApp (www.erasysapp.eu) project is “Systems Biology Applications – ERASysApp” (app = application, referring to translational systems biology). The project aims to promote multidimensional and complementary European systems biology projects, programmes, and research initiatives with a particular focus on applications. In other words, it aims to stimulate “translational systems biology” research approaches (application-oriented and/or industry-relevant).
Taking past successful developments and achievements into account, ERASysApp continues and builds on work that has been performed by the previously funded successful ERANET on Systems Biology, ERASysBio and its spin-offs ERASysBio+, SysMO and SysMO2 (www.erasysbio.net). This is advantageous, since it allows for the efficient use of past experiences and tangible results of ERASysBio and will guarantee maximal synergism. Apart from setting up joint transnational calls and giving impulses to industry for applying more Systems Biology approaches, ERASysApp focuses on so-called horizontal topics such as improved data management and data sharing, training and networking with national, transnational, and SB initiatives inside and outside the European Research Area (ERA).
The workshop “Networking of research centres” will concentrate on model systems topic and and collaboration mechanisms while the second workshop “Networking industry-academia” will be devoted to the topics of standards, data sharing and intellectual property rights.
