EHR4CR Electronic Health Record systems for Clinical Research

Coordinator: ASTRAZENECA AB (SE)

Current medical needs, the growth of targeted therapies and personalized medicines, and escalating R&D costs result in formidable cost pressures on healthcare systems and the pharmaceutical industry. Clinical research is also growing in complexity, labour intensity and cost. There is a growing realization that the development and integration of Electronic Health Record systems (EHRs) for medical research can enable substantial efficiency gains, make Europe more attractive for R&D investment and provide patients better access to innovative medicines and improved health outcomes.EHRs can now be…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €7.2M toward a total project budget of €16.6M — a funding rate of 43%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2011-03-01 to 2016-02-29.
