The Austrian FH Conference (FHK) and the F&E (R&D) FHK Committee would like to invite all
researchers at Austrian Universities of Applied Sciences to present and discuss their R&D results.
This year, the motto of this event will be “Building Bridges“.
A bridge to Business: It is the mission of Austrian
Universities of Applied Sciences to offer academic
education that is geared towards specific lines of
business.
A bridge to the Public: Presenting research results in
a way that is easily accessible for the public.
Austria as a Bridge: Austria as a bridge between EastWest-North-South.
A Bridge to the FH Community: Enhanced focus on
network-building through interactive formats.

A Bridge within The Tertiary Education Sector:
Acting as a bridge to other tertiary education institutions
(universities etc.)
The Research Forum of the Austrian Universities of Applied Sciences (FFH) is a platform for
presenting the various research activities and results of Austrian Universities of Applied Sciences,
which have developed a multi-faceted research landscape transcending disciplinary and geographical
borders. Year after year, the FFH proves its abilities in applied research activities. Communicating with
society, politics and business, we are looking forward to very interesting contributions by researchers,
to fruitful discussions, and a worthwhile exchange of all participants in the FFH 2016.

Target Group
The Research Forum offers representatives of Austrian Universities of Applied Sciences the
opportunity to discuss their current R&D. R&D (F&E) cooperation partners are invited to present
successful joint projects as well.
The contributions are aimed at Austrian Universities of Applied Sciences, competence centers, and
other non-university research institutions; decision-makers in politics, representatives of research
promotion, business enterprises, and other business partners, and the general public.
Panel Description
Beim Thema „Translationale Gesundheitsforschung – Brücken bauen von Grundlagenwissenschaft zu
angewandter Forschung“ geht es in diesem Panel darum, durch den kontinuierlichen Austausch
zwischen Grundlagenforschung und angewandter Wissenschaft verbesserte Therapie- und
Diagnoseverfahren schnell der Gesellschaft zugutekommen zu lassen, also um die Übertragen von
Ergebnissen aus der Forschung auf die klinische Praxis. Somit wird auch die Lücke für
wissenschaftliche PartnerInnen aus dem Bereich Grundlagen hin zu angewandter Forschung
geschlossen. Eine erfolgreiche Translation der wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse ist ein entscheidender
Faktor für die Fortschritte in Therapie und Behandlung der Bevölkerung.
Dieses Panel versteht sich als gelebte Kooperation zwischen Theorie und Praxis, zwischen und
innerhalb der Berufsgruppen (interprofessionell und interdisziplinär) und somit als förderlichen
gesundheitsbringenden Faktor für die Gesundheitserhaltung bzw. Gesundheitsförderung.
Exemplarische Subthemen:
 Grundlagenforschung
 angewandte Forschung
 anwendungsorientierte Forschung
 Theorie/Praxis Konflikt
 Transfer Theorie Praxis
 Evidence based Praxis (ebp)
 Interprofessionalität u. Interdisziplinarität
Didactic Design of the Panel:
Die Mitglieder des Panelteams werden die Moderation der Vorträge abwechselnd übernehmen.
Die Vortragenden haben freie Wahl bei der Form der Präsentation ihrer Daten und Ergebnisse mit
einer anschließenden offenen Diskussion.
Am Ende des Panels findet eine Podiumsdiskussion mit allen Vortragenden statt, um einen breiten
Austausch zu klinisch wie auch gesellschaftlich relevanten Aspekten, sowie zu kontroversen Fragen
und Inhalten zu ermöglichen. Zudem sollen mögliche Übereinstimmungen aufgezeigt werden und
möglichen neuen Kooperationen Raum gegeben werden.
