Success in cardiovascular research is more and more influenced by networking activities. The German cardiac surgery field currently suffers a lack of such networking activities which becomes evident by a limited numbers of publications and involvement in the organization of and participation in large national and international trials. Although there are current examples for networking structures in cardiac surgery, the leading promoters are mostly non-surgeons. This fact creates a competence gap, which not only limits the representation of cardiac surgery in cardiovascular research, but also restricts the qualification of motivated young physicians and researchers. The applicants of this proposal already took the first step towards qualification and networking by successfully conducting the first young investigator academy 2018/19. In this program, a number of talented young cardiac surgeons not only learned the necessary scientific know-how, but it was also possible to form an international network with the American surgical trials network CTSN and implement the NGINS structure (New Generation Investigator Network of Science). In the course of these activities, it became evident that an organized networking activity focusing on research activities in German cardiac surgery is necessary. Thus, we founded GermaN HeaRTS (German Network for Heart Research and Trials in Surgery), a German network structure that pursues the following goals:1. Organized participation as well as conception and leading of multicenter trials2. Promotion of young researchers3. Optimizing the cooperation with international networks and trials (in particular CTSN)4. Facilitation of building multicenter databases and conducting multicenter registry analyses.A founding meeting has alread taken place in February 2020 and many cardiac surgery centers in Germany have already declared their participation. With this proposal, we apply for funding for meetings and coordinating activities for the implementation of this network structure. It is our goal within the 3-year funding period to stabilize and to strengthen the structure financially through collective research proposals in order to achieve a sustainable appreciation of the research in cardiac surgery in Germany.

心血管研究的成功越来越多地受到网络活动的影响。德国心脏外科领域目前缺乏这种网络活动，这一点从出版物数量有限以及参与组织和参与大型国家和国际试验的数量有限中可以看出。虽然目前有心脏外科网络结构的例子，但主要的推动者大多是非外科医生。这一事实造成了能力差距，这不仅限制了心脏外科在心血管研究中的代表性，而且也限制了有动力的年轻医生和研究人员的资格。该提案的申请人已经通过成功举办2018/19年第一届青年调查员学院，迈出了资格和网络的第一步。在这个项目中，一些有才华的年轻心脏外科医生不仅学习了必要的科学知识，而且还可以与美国外科试验网络CTSN形成国际网络，并实施NGINS结构（新一代科学研究者网络）。在这些活动的过程中，很明显，有组织的网络活动，重点是在德国心脏外科的研究活动是必要的。因此，我们成立了GermaN HeaRTS（German Network for Heart Research and Trials in Surgery），这是一个追求以下目标的德国网络结构：1. 有组织的参与以及多中心试验的构思和领导2。 青年研究人员的晋升3。 优化与国际网络和试验（特别是CTSN）的合作 促进建立多中心数据库和进行多中心登记分析。成立会议已于2020年2月举行，德国的许多心脏手术中心已宣布参与。根据这一建议，我们申请为实施这一网络结构的会议和协调活动提供资金。我们的目标是在3年资助期内通过集体研究提案稳定和加强财政结构，以实现对德国心脏外科研究的可持续评价。
