Overarching Goal Clause Samples

Overarching Goal. The goal of North Dakota's RII Track-1 effort, New Discoveries in the Advanced Interface of Computation, Engineering, and Science (ND-ACES) is to build greater capacity to facilitate innovation within ND's bioscience sector in sustainable fundamental, applied, and translational research as well as broaden participation and economic engagement beyond commodities. Specifically, ND-ACES’ research will expand ND’s familiarity, expertise, and research capacity related to the growth of breast and prostate cancer cells that mimic primary and metastatic tumors. ND-ACES will expand bioscience capacity by leveraging current and new investments that lead to new knowledge and increase ND's competitiveness. Success in this arena will help diversify the state’s economy beyond the boom and bust agriculture and oil (commodity) sectors. ND’s S&T Plan (Appendix F) identifies bioscience as an emerging area of critical importance for RU research emphases and addresses state priorities for economic growth. Prior to the submission of this NSF RII Track-1, the ND EPSCoR State Steering Committee (Appendix A) reviewed and confirmed the relevance of the S&T Plan to the ND-ACES research and they will continue to make recommendations regarding future focus areas. ND-ACES is poised to dramatically enhance success in building capacity for bioscience research in ND and sustaining innovative science in the state. ND-ACES, through efforts at the RUs, MCU, PUIs, and TCUs, enables the capacity-building that helps transition the CCBSE into a mature entity for research innovation. This effort includes shaping the expertise and capabilities in research and development areas that align with federal priorities while addressing the sustainability of important growth areas for the state. The CCBSE addresses the potential for biosciences research growth in ND and will build capacity for innovative research that focuses on specific Strategies detailed in the state's S&T Plan by calling for investments in the emerging biotechnologies sector (Strategy 1.A.1.iii); associated support for the development of a "biosciences/biomedical" research corridor in the Red River Valley, where both of the RUs are located (Strategy ▇.▇.▇.▇▇); expanded support across ND for materials science research (Strategy 1.A.1.vii); increased state investments in advanced scientific computing and visualization (Strategies 1.A.5; 2.B.1, 2.B.6, 4.B); support and expansion of infrastructure in key research and development areas (St...

Overarching Goal. The overarching goal of this project is Implementing such a European system will be subject to the following constraints: • Any access to personal information can only take place with a citizen’s explicit and in- formed consent; • Any access is in the context of a resident of one state visiting another state and seek- ing healthcare in that state. It is noted that this proposal is only one element in a wider strategy to promote and encour- age the development of an interoperable European eHealth infrastructure and services that builds on the eHealth strategies of individual member states. This is a long-term goal that 1 e-Health – making healthcare better for European citizens: An action plan for a European e-health area. COM(2004) 356(final) involves considerable work beyond the scope and timescale of this large-scale pilot. Essen- tial requirements of any solution are that it must: • be centred on the needs and wishes of citizens, patients and their carers (including wishes with respect to confidentiality and consent) • maintain, and preferably enhance, patient safety • be capable of being supported by all member state administrations within the context of their national health regulations, strategies and eHealth implementations.
