Dr Lundin will start as Research Director on 1 May 2011, until 31 December The Board approved the content of the FIMM Annual Report 2010 at its meeting on 8 April Some minor modifications were made based on the comments received from the Board. The printed version of the Report was available at the meeting on 3 May MIT Consulting Ltd has performed an investigation of the FIMM and THL possibilities to translate patient clinical, genetic and life style data. The results of the work consisting of two workshops and background research were discussed in a wrap-up session on 13 April FIMM representatives, as well as experts from THL, HUS and the University of Helsinki participated in the work. The final report proposes the development of a clinical decision support (CDS) tool for interpreting genetic, clinical, laboratory and life style information, primarily for physician use. As an example a system for identification of individuals at major risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) was proposed. The proposed concepts will be further developed. 4.4 The Project Agreement Negotiations of the PREDECT project (IMI-JU) have been finalised, and the Grant Agreement signatures are almost completed. After withdrawal of Pfizer, other EFPIA partners (Sanofi Aventis and Johnson & Johnson) are approached to complement a balanced EFPIA in-kind contribution to the project. The Project Goals have been discussed with a distinguished Scientific Advisory Board at the AACR in Orlando Florida in April. A postdoc recruitment campaign using Nature and Nature Reviews in Cancer advertisement campaign and PREDECT webpages ( is ongoing. International and local press releases are expected to be released in early May. 4.5 FIMM is involved in the BioMedBridges proposal submitted to the EU s 7 th Framework Programme s Capacities Programme on 23 November 2010 (INFRA : Implementation of common solutions for a cluster of ESFRI infrastructures in the field of life sciences).

Funding can also be used for short (6 month 1 year) visits of postdoctoral scientists into research groups in Finnish Biocenters. Funding available for FIMM is euros for 2011 and euros for Researchers and teachers at the University of Helsinki may apply for Chancellor s travel grants to cover the costs of foreign travel for academic purposes. Based on the Rector s decision of December 2010 (203/2010) in 2011 the applications are processed for the first time at Faculty/Institute level, not in the Central Administration of the University.
