7 FP7 Co-operation Health Theme – Vital Statistics Budget of €6 billion from 2007 to 2013 Call topics and deadlines specified in annual Work Programmes - rotation of topics Around 70 different topics in 2009, mix of single-stage and two-stage evaluation Funding for US partners possible

8 Health Activity Areas Key Research Challenges for 2011 Work Programme: 1.How lifestyle affects health, and how this can be addressed 2.Supporting clinical trials for safety and efficiency 3.Increasing the competitiveness of health-related industries and services in the EU ► more SME involvement 4.Global health issues FP7 Co-operation: Health Biotechnology, generic tools & medical technologies for human health Translating research into clinical trials and for human health Optimising the delivery of healthcare to European citizens

9 http://www.ukro.ac.uk Project Types for FP7 Co-operation Health Theme Applications

10 Small to Medium/ Focused Collaborative Projects Targeting a specific objective in a clearly defined overall approach Fixed overall work plan Research/technological development activity and /or a demonstration activity 18-36 months €0.8- 4 million EC contribution 6-15 participants FP7 Funding Schemes

11 Large Scale/Integrating Collaborative Projects Ambitious objective-driven research with a ‘programme approach’ Coherent and flexible set of activities RTD activities, demonstration, technology transfer, training, dissemination, knowledge management and exploitation 36-60 months €4- 7 million EC contribution 10-20 participants FP7 Funding Schemes

12 Examples of Topics from 2009 1.Biotechnology, generic tools & medical technologies for human health HEALTH.2010.1.2-1: Tools for the identification and the detection of biomarkers in clinical samples and patients. (CP) 2.Translating research for human health HEALTH.2010.2.1.2-2: Establishing the foundations to enable systems biology of complex biological processes relevant to human health. (NoE) 3.Optimising the delivery of health care to European citizens HEALTH.2010.3.1-1: Better understanding of dissemination and implementation strategies. (CP) 4. Other Actions Across the theme HEALTH.2010.4.1-1: Promoting participation of high technology research-intensive SMEs, operating in the Health sector. (CSA) FP7 Co-operation: Health

13 Opportunities within other FP7 Co-operation themes Environment: Environment and Health ie. health impacts of climate change, and of other environmental stressors NMP: various health-related ie. development of nanotechnology-based systems for detection, diagnosis and therapy for cancer ICT: sustainable & personalised healthcare ie. personal health care systems, ICT for patient safety, virtual physiological human FP7 Co-operation: Health
