Objectives
- Periodic survey of the research communities’ needs
- Development of recommendations for radiologists to engage with different fields of research and innovation
- Provide strategic recommendations for the research field to the ESR Executive Council
- Leverage cooperation between research disciplines
- Provide the liaison of the ESR with the European Institute for Biomedical Imaging Research (EIBIR) and help to promote its services and activities
- Foster networking and liaising with scientific biomedical European societies
- Provide recommendations and guidelines for lung cancer screening jointly with the European Respiratory Society
- Coordinate activities related to imaging biobanks and biomarkers (see EIBALL):
- To promote the development of imaging biobanks and intelligent tools for the analysis and processing of imaging biomarkers
- To promote the standardisation, validation and benchmarking of the imaging data included in those biobanks
- To stimulate the linking and integration of existing (national and regional) image data repositories related to populations, screening /early detection and disease
- To stimulate the link between imaging biobanks and traditional biobanks through the development of standards and liaison with BBMRI-ERIC (Biobanking and BioMolecular resources Research Infrastructure)
- To explore the economical, ethical/legal issues for the management of imaging biobanks
- Coordinate activities aimed to foster research education:
- To assess the current status of and develop recommendations on how to improve education in research
- To regularly update the input of research into the ESR European Training Curriculum for Radiology
The ESR Research Committee supports the ESR Research Seed Grant Initiative.
