Scientists reject blame for German genome shortfall

Article Abstract:

It is anticipated that funding for the German Human Genome Project will rise significantly in 2001. However, it will still be much less than what many observers feel Germany requires to compete internationally. Research ministry senior official Walter Dollinger has stated that the scientific community and industry have not lobbied effectively for funding for genomics research. This has been denied by scientists. Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft Pres Ernst-Ludwig Winnacker emphasizes that the heads of all German research organizations have written detailed reports and have launched an initiative to lobby politicians.

German minister backs more growth for basic research

Article Abstract:

German minister for education and research, Jurgen Ruttgers, promises more federal governmental funding for basic research. He, especially, confirms the support for a five-year financing agreement with the Max Planck Gesellschaft, which manages basic research institutes, and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, which funds basic research projects in universities. He also aims to strengthen long-term support for Germany's industrial competitiveness by strengthening higher education and the basic and applied research bases.

German agency to boost bioinformatics

Article Abstract:

A flexible programme in bioinformatics has been launched by Germany's main funding agency for university research, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. This programme will consider for funding any plan that could assist in boosting German competitiveness in bioinformatics. The flexible approach is partly a response to criticism that the agency was too rigid, thus making the support of new interdisciplinary subjects difficult.
