DIALECT aims to combat diabetic foot disease through personalised medicine, by establishing an innovative, international, interdisciplinary and intersectoral research and training effort that will deliver the next generation of leading, entrepreneurial and creative scientists to reinforce the European innovative workforce. This is both timely and urgent, illustrated by that the burden of diabetic foot disease is in the top-10 of all medical conditions, and emphasized by the fact that every 20 seconds someone in the world loses a leg because of foot disease. Currently, we lack success in delivering the right treatment to the right person at the right time to prevent foot ulceration and amputation. We will provide unique world-class interdisciplinary and intersectoral training to a new generation of high-achieving early stage researchers in the areas of biomechanics, activity behaviour and footwear related to diabetic foot disease.A well-balanced consortium of academic, industry, healthcare and implementation partners will deliver the carefully designed DIALECT training network, comprising training through research, structured network-wide training events, intersectoral secondments and future work skills training. This will result in a paradigm shift towards personalised medicine that goes beyond state-of-the-art, by developing new personalised risk stratifications, biomechanical foot models, innovative activity and adherence profiles, wearable technology systems for biomechanical and activity monitoring, and personalised optimised footwear intervention products. DIALECT will provide ESRs with a comprehensive skillset capable of delivering high-quality scientific and industry solutions to develop into leading innovators in the European healthcare sector, who are highly employable and ready to engage and lead the next European generation of scientists-entrepreneurs to expedite progress in reducing the patient, societal and economic burden of diabetic foot disease.

DIALECT旨在通过个性化医疗来对抗糖尿病足疾病，通过建立创新的，国际的，跨学科的和跨部门的研究和培训工作，将提供下一代领先的，具有创业精神和创造力的科学家，以加强欧洲的创新劳动力。这是及时和紧迫的，糖尿病足病的负担是所有医疗条件的前10名，并强调每20秒世界上就有人因为足部疾病失去一条腿。目前，我们在正确的时间向正确的人提供正确的治疗以防止足部溃疡和截肢方面缺乏成功。我们将提供独特的世界一流的跨学科和跨部门的培训，以新一代的高成就的早期研究人员在生物力学领域，活动行为和鞋类相关的糖尿病足疾病。一个平衡的学术，工业，医疗保健和实施合作伙伴联盟将提供精心设计的DIALECT培训网络，包括通过研究，结构化的网络范围内的培训活动，跨部门借调和未来工作技能培训。这将通过开发新的个性化风险分层、生物力学足部模型、创新的活动和坚持概况、用于生物力学和活动监测的可穿戴技术系统以及个性化优化的鞋类干预产品，实现向超越最先进水平的个性化医疗的范式转变。DIALECT将为ESRs提供全面的技能，能够提供高质量的科学和行业解决方案，以发展成为欧洲医疗保健领域的领先创新者，他们具有高度的就业能力，并准备参与和领导下一代欧洲科学家-企业家，以加快减少糖尿病足疾病的患者，社会和经济负担的进展。
