NUM 2.0: The second funding period

Infrastructure Projects

AKTIN@NUM

  • Improving healthcare research in German Emergeny Rooms (ERs) by establishing a national emergency admission register (AKTIN).
  • Maintaining the AKTIN register
  • Extension to a nationwide infrastructure for real-time healthcare research in ERs.
  • Establishment of standardised, structured documentation procedures in ERs.

Local Principal Investigators (PIs):

Dr. Bernd-Christoph Ulrich

Dr. Kirsten Habbinga

Dr. Thomas Henke

NUM-DIZ: NUM Data Integration Centres

  • The main goal is to establish a data integration centre (DIZ) in Oldenburg, in order to make the routine data available and accessible for (medical) research.
  • Main tasks of the DIZ: Data transfer from various data-providing (hospital) systems, consolidation and processing of these data and the assurance of data quality.
  • As part of a sustainable infrastructure, the DIZ can make an important contribution to FAIR data management. FAIR in this case means Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable.

Local PIs:

Prof. Dr. Antje Wulff

RACOON: The nation-wide RAdiological COOperative Network

  • Establishment of a nationwide infrastructure for collecting radiological data from Covid-19 cases.
  • Provision of real-time assessed and analysed data from Covid 19 pneumonia cases. 
  • Development of an AI for the analysis of image data.

Research Projects

CollPan: Health-related collateral damage of Covid-19 pandemic

  • The overarching goals are to research the collateral health effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and to identify important factors that trigger these effects
  • This "surveillance infrastructure" is intended to protect vulnerable groups in particular from such collateral health effects in the future
  • In order to achieve these goals, the following structures will be established and developed within this project:
    1. A national platform for research into such collateral damage
    2. A sustainable interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research network within the NUM
  • In Oldenburg, collateral damage to pre-existing mental illnesses and cancers in the ENT area will be investigated and characterized in more detail

Local PIs:

Prof. Dr. Dr. René Hurlemann

Prof. Dr. med. Katrin Radeloff

NAPKON V2.0: National Pandemic Cohort Network

  • Continuation of the NAPKON project: Collection of high-quality clinical phenotyping data, including biospecimens and image data.
  • Focus changed to the inclusion of control patients, paediatric patients and controls of patients with vaccine breakthroughs.
  • Inclusion of over 50 patients at all three participating Oldenburg hospitals.

Local PIs:

Prof. Dr. Axel Hamprecht

Prof. Dr. Astrid Petersmann

PREPARED: PREparedness and PAndemic REsponse in Germany

  • The main objective of PREPARED is to develop a comprehensive, collaborative, adaptable and sustainable infrastructure for pandemic management and preparedness within the NUM.
  • The goal is to ensure patient healthcare in times of crisis and to enable and ensure coordinated, rapid and evidence-based responses to public health threats.

Local PIs:

PD Dr Anna Levke Brütt

 

RACOON Combine

  • The main goal is to develop and implement a pipeline for COVID-specific and prognostic imaging biomarker extraction to enable the phenotyping of the disease and the patient him/herself.
  • The results will help to improve patient management and the understanding of different Covid-19 disease patterns and the organ-organ crosstalk specific to the virus.

More information about the project can be found here.

UTN Telemedicine Network

  • The aim of the project is to create a university telemedicine network (UTN) for high-frequency, standardized, electronic data acquisition and integration for COVID-19 research
  • To this end, a common, interoperable, standardized and secure telemedicine infrastructure is to be created that implements and unites the heterogeneous telemedicine data infrastructures and networks that have prevailed to date

Local PI:

PD Dr. med. Daniel Overheu

Ad-hoc Projects

IMMUNEBRIDGE

  • Establishment of a Germany-wide, population-based panel to test the population’s immunity to SARS-CoV2 through vaccination and infection.
  • This will provide prospective and retrospective epidemiological estimates for the expected wave of disease in autumn and winter 2022.
  • Oldenburg acts as the central laboratory in this national project

Local PI:

Prof. Dr. Astrid Petersmann

 

NU(M)KRAINE

  • Main focus of this project is to characterize the vaccination status of Ukrainian refugees.
  • The data collected in this context should advance the identification of care needs in the group of war refugees to formulate appropriate recommendations.
  • Oldenburg functions as the central laboratory in this national project.
