Research

The field of medicine, in particular medical imaging technology, is advancing rapidly.

The ESR aims to survey up-to-date information about the needs of the radiological research community to develop recommendations to enhance radiologists' involvement in the emerging fields of research and innovation.

In order to maintain and enhance research in radiology, the ESR makes continuous efforts to improve and advance education in radiology.

Leveraging cooperation between research disciplines and fostering networking with scientific biomedical societies in Europe and abroad are among the priority objectives of the ESR.

The ESR Research Committee provides advice on all research matters within the Society and collaborates with the Education, the Quality, Safety and Standards and the Subspecialties and Allied Sciences Committees on structuring research in radiology

The ESR Research Committee also provides the liaison of the Society with the European Institute for Biomedical Imaging Research (EIBIR), which is dedicated to the coordination of research projects and supports the development of biomedical imaging technologies and the dissemination of knowledge.

ESR Research Seed Grant

In 2020, we launched a new seed grant funding programme for innovative projects and pilot studies. The purpose of the programme was to stimulate and provide funding for ambitious projects that would subsequently lead to larger studies and further funding applications. Following the highly successful ESR Seed Grant Initiative in 2020 and the recent announcement of the awardees for 2022, the European Society of Radiology (ESR), in cooperation with the European Institute for Biomedical Imaging Research (EIBIR), is pleased to announce that we are going global!

The 2022 ESR Research Seed Grant Global has been kindly supported by an unrestricted, non-exclusive grant from Siemens Healthineers.

The funding priority the 2022 ESR Research Seed Grant Global initiative is for research in Enhancing quality in radiological imaging and interventional radiology and Value-Based Radiology. The focus will be on (but not limited to) research in ultrasound, CT, and conventional imaging.

The Application Deadline is: September 20, 2022 (11:59 am CEST)

Please see the ESR Research Seed Grant website for further details!
