Life science research and industrial applications promoting sustainability

Given the escalating global sustainability challenges and potential for research to make a positive impact in reducing environmental footprint, the Foundation will increase its focus on life science research and industrial applications promoting sustainability.

The Foundation’s activities will focus on:

Industrial biotechnology
Plant and food biotechnology
Environmental biotechnology
Basic research and platforms and technologies supporting research on sustainability
Training programmes and methods related to life science research and industrial applications promoting research on sustainability

Focus areas and long-term goals

In the future the Foundation will expand its activities and impact beyond physiology, metabolism and endocrinology.

Through a research-based approach, the Foundation will help make Denmark a global leader in delivering the best patient-centred care within diabetes.

Given the important role of research in the natural and technical sciences and how it contributes to advances in biomedicine and biotechnology, the Foundation will increase its focus on natural and technical science research and interdisciplinarity.

The broad range of grant-awarding activities the Foundation supports puts it at the nexus of many key academic research, clinical care and industrial networks, making it a natural facilitator of the interdisciplinary dialogue and activity that spurs innovation.

Education includes grant-awarding activities within Denmark that support students and teachers from preschool through post-secondary education.

The Foundation will focus its social, humanitarian and development aid objective on children and young people.
