Um was handelt es sich bei diesem Material?
LBG launched an ‘Open Innovation in Science’ initiative in 2014 aiming to increase research impact through public engagement, inspired by the Harvard Medical School conducted project on the topic of Type 1 diabetes. The crowdsourcing initiative ‘Tell Us!’ invited the community, consisting of patients, family members, and health care professionals, to generate new research questions in the field of mental health. LBG took up that challenge and announced a research call representing an interactive workshop, known as Sandpit/Ideas Lab, to bring together 30 researchers for a multi-day event, during which researchers are specifically encouraged to think out-of-the box and dissolve disciplinary boundaries. This innovative approach aimed to build interdisciplinary Research Groups that strongly connect with the community. As an outcome of the Ideas Lab, two Research Groups were formed to research and implement solutions on ‘Children of mentally ill parents’ in the next four years (2018-2021). This report describes all the steps in the Ideas Lab process.
