TRM Awards 2008: Funding for up to 20 awards and research groups

The Translational Centre for Regenerative Medicine (TRM) Leipzig, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Research and Education and the Free State of Saxony, is charged with the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic technologies as well as preclinical models in regenerative medicine.
For its new funding period that starts in 2009, researchers are invited to apply for awards to pursue research from bench-to-bedside.

Funding is available for up to twenty awards and research groups in the four research areas of the centre:
* Tissue Engineering and Materials Science (TEMAT)
* Cell Therapies for Repair und Replacement (CELLT)
* Regulatory Molecules and Delivery Systems (REMOD)
* Imaging, Modelling and Monitoring Regeneration (IMONIT)

Goal orientation with clearly defined milestones will be an inherent task in all approaches. While applicants are asked to apply with clear therapeutic or diagnostic concepts from all four research areas above, applications within the following subjects are particularly encouraged:

* Scaffolds for stem cell differentiation
* Novel bioreactor technologies
* Innovative drug-delivery systems
* Target molecules for regenerative medicine and transplantation
* Angiogenesis
* Reprogramming stem cells (iPC)
* In vitro organ development
* Aspects in Xenotransplantation
* New microscopic and imaging technologies

Individual researchers as well as research groups headed by a leader may apply for this programme. Awards start from 2009 for 3 years initially and can be extended, depending on external review, for up to 7 years. Funding is available for the researcher’s own salary (usually ranging from 35.000€ to 60.000€ p.a.), additional staffing, consumables, and equipment. Salaries and funding volume are adjustable depending on experience.
