Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Research Mobility Programs
  • European Research Initiatives

Background:

  • The European Commission's Seventh Framework Program (FP7) - People, under the COFUND action, finances international research mobility.
  • The "Alleanza Contro il Cancro" (Italian Cancer Network) outlines a strategy to boost translational cancer research in Europe.
  • Previous initiatives have aimed to promote international research collaboration and career development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To enhance translational cancer research skills through international mobility.
  • To support 51 incoming, outgoing, and reintegration fellowships over three years.
  • To foster career development for scientists at various career stages.

Main Methods:

  • A three-year international mobility program was established.
  • Fellowships were awarded to postdoctoral scientists and researchers with at least four years of experience.
  • The program included opportunities for non-Italian scientists to work in Italy and for Italian scientists to return from abroad.

Main Results:

  • The TRAIN proposal was successfully evaluated by the European Commission in 2009.
  • The program aims to improve translational skills in cancer research.
  • It facilitates international collaboration and strengthens the European Research Area.

Conclusions:

  • The TRAIN initiative successfully promotes international research mobility in translational cancer research.
  • It enhances career development for scientists and strengthens industry-academia interactions.
  • The program contributes to Italy's strategy for European cancer research leadership.
