DZG Innovation Fund: Promoting Cross-Disease Research enters in the thrid round

The DZG Innovation Fund (DZGIF) is a joint research funding program of the German Centers for Health Research. For each round of calls for proposals, there will be an agreed research topic that allows active participation of all DZG. A prerequisite for funding a project is the participation of scientists from at least three of the seven DZGs. The aim of the DZGIF is to strengthen networking between its members, to facilitate joint research, and thereby create interdisciplinary synergies between the DZGs. With the establishment of the DZGIF, the centers are pooling their expertise to facilitate and fund promising cross-disease research ideas that advance knowledge on the prevention and treatment of common diseases.
