Amendment 516 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 2 – point 1 – point 1.4 – point 1.4.3 – paragraph 1
The objective is to develop platform technologies (e.g. genomics, meta- genomics, proteomics, molecular tools) triggering leadership and competitive advantage on a wide number of economic sectors. It includes aspects, such as underpinning the development of bio- resources with optimised properties and applications beyond conventional alternatives; enabling exploration, understanding and exploitation in a sustainable manner of terrestrial and marine biodiversity for novel applications; Priority support will be given to new diagnostic methods where a prevention or diagnosis for the patient in question either already exists or is likely to be developed.

Amendment 608 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.2 – paragraph 1
The development of screening programmes depends on the identification of early biomarkers of risk and of disease onset, and their deployment depends on the testing and validation of screening methods and programmes. Identifying individuals and populations at high-risk of disease will allow personalised, stratified and collective strategies for efficacious and cost effective disease prevention to be developed. In this connection, priority will be given to screening programmes where prevention or therapy for the patient concerned are available or are likely to be developed.

Amendment 619 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.6 – paragraph 1
An improved understanding of health, disease and disease processes at all ages is needed to develop new and more effective diagnostics. Innovative and existing technologies will be developed with the goal of significantly improving disease outcomes through earlier, more accurate diagnosis and by allowing for more patient-adapted treatment. In this connection, priority will be given to diagnostic methods where prevention or therapeutic measures for the patients concerned are available or are likely to be available in the near future.

Amendment 627 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.8 – paragraph 1
There is a need to support the improvement of cross-cutting support technologies for drugs, vaccines and other therapeutic approaches, including transplantation, gene and cell therapy, particularly adult stem cell therapy, umbilical cord blood cell and iPS cell therapies; to increase success in the drug and vaccine development process (including alternative methods to replace classical safety and effectiveness testing e.g. the development of new methods); to develop regenerative medicine approaches, including approaches based on stem cells; to develop improved medical and assistive devices and systems; to maintain and enhance our ability to combat communicable, rare, major and chronic diseases and undertake medical interventions that depend on the availability of effective antimicrobial drugs; and to develop comprehensive approaches to treat co-morbidities at all ages and avoid poly-pharmacy. These improvements will facilitate the development of new, more efficient, effective and sustainable treatments for disease and for the management of disability. There is a need to develop ideas in the field of regenerative medicine, particularly based on adult stem cells, umbilical cord blood cells and iPS cells.

Amendment 639 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.9 – paragraph 1
Clinical trials are the means to transfer biomedical knowledge to application in patients and support for these will be provided, as well as for the improvement of their practice. Examples include the development of better methodologies to allow trials to focus on relevant population groups, including those suffering from other concomitant diseases and/or already undergoing treatment, the determination of comparative effectiveness of interventions and solutions, as well as enhancing the use of databases and electronic health records as data sources for trials and knowledge transfer. Similarly, support for the transfer of other types of interventions such as those related to independent living into real world environments will be provided. Particular importance will be given to clinical tests in the field of rare diseases and child illnesses including those associated with premature birth.

Amendment 653 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.15 a (new)
1.15a. Life sciences for medicine: Priority should be given to research efforts which one Member State alone cannot undertake or cannot undertake as efficiently as the Union and which will directly benefit patients in the foreseeable future.

Amendment 962 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 3 – point 6 – point 6.3 – paragraph 3 – point 6.3.4 – paragraph 1
This requires the development of dedicated technologies and capabilities to support different types of emergency management operations (such as civil protection, flood protection, fire fighting and marine pollution, humanitarian aid, civil defence, conflict prevention, development of medical information infrastructures rescue tasks and post-crisis-stabilisation) as well as law enforcement. Research will cover the whole crisis management chain and societal resilience, and support the establishment of a European emergency response capacity.

Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 4 – point 3 – point 3.6 – paragraph 1 – point h
(h) Enhance the Union's capacity for disaster risk reduction and management of natural and man-made disasters notably through the development of test facilities, global multi- hazard early warning and risk management information systems, making use of Earth Observation technologies.

Amendment 983 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex 1 – section 4 – point 3 – point 3.6 – paragraph 1 – point h a (new)
(ha) Develop demonstration and pilot installations for disaster simulation in order to reduce disaster risk and improve local disaster management, with particular regard to flood protection.
