Funding
The NUM Study Network is a research infrastructure within the Network University Medicine (Netzwerk Universitätsmedizin – NUM). NUM is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
The establishment and pilot phase of the NUM Study Network and the Specialty Network Infectious Diseases are supported as part of the NUM 2.0 funding period, running from July 2024 to July 2025. During this phase, the network will be structurally developed and tested in preparation for long-term implementation.
A subsequent five-year funding period has been applied for under NUM 3.0, starting after July 2025. From this point onward, the NUM Study Network and the associated Specialty Networks (Fachnetzwerke) will be funded under separate project descriptions, reflecting their specific roles and structures within the overall NUM framework.
This funding enables the NUM Study Network to establish a sustainable and competitive national infrastructure for clinical and clinical-epidemiological research in Germany.
