Nachwuchsakademie – Herzchirurgie II Vom Einzelantrag zur Vernetzung

去年，我们主办了第一届Nachwuchsakademie Herzchirurgie(NWA)DFG。资助是基于这样一种看法，即对研究的要求已经改变，包括心脏外科领域。在过去的15-20年里，与其他学科相比，心脏外科较少满足这些要求。反应是巨大的(34名申请者，21名与会者，20名DFG个人研究补助金提案，9名已批准的补助金)。第一次NWA表明，德国心脏外科实习生的基础科学专业知识仍有发展潜力。此外，调查还表明，学习必要的基础知识的智力能力和兴趣是存在的，仍然需要为年轻人提供更多支持。NWA的另一个作用是正在与北美最大的外科科学网络(CTSN)形成合作，这可能并将导致建立重要的国际网络。网络在学术领域变得越来越重要。目前基础和临床科学的顶级出版物越来越多地以(国际)相关项目为基础。我们发现，目前心脏手术的合作水平落后。因此，我们申请2.Nachwuchsakademie Herzchirurgie，目的是在德国心脏外科学员中传播基本科学知识，并增加科学网络(国家、国际、临床和基础科学)的程度。

Last year we hosted the first DFG Nachwuchsakademie Herzchirurgie (NWA). Funding was based on the perception that requirements on research have changed, which includes the field of cardiac surgery. These requirements were less met in cardiac surgery compared to other disciplines during the last 15-20 years. The response was enormous (34 applicants, 21 attendees, 20 submitted DFG-Individual Research Grant proposals, 9 approved grants). The first NWA showed that basic scientific expertise of trainees in German heart surgery has still developmental potential. In addition, it showed that the intellectual competencies and the interest to learn the necessary basics are there and that there is still a need of more support for the young. Another effect of the NWA is the ongoing formation of a cooperation with the largest surgical scientific network of North America (CTSN) which may and shall lead to the creation of important international networks. Networking becomes more and more important in the academic field. Present top publications of basic and clinical science are increasingly based on (international) connected projects. We showed that the level of cooperation in heart surgery currently lags behind. Therefore, we apply for the 2. Nachwuchsakademie Herzchirurgie with the aim to spread basic scientific knowledge amongst trainees of German heart surgery and to increase the extent of scientific networking (national, international, clinical and basic science).
