**deploy_overview.py deps:** the script ALREADY self-installs requests+blake3 (`ensure_deps()`). Did the deploy actually fail on your run with an import/pip error? If yes, paste the error and I'll harden `ensure_deps()`; if it's just precautionary, no change needed. [feedback]
**cmr-dyspnea obese group:** I marked the ?c? resolved per your done-marker but you didn't record keep/drop — confirm the direction so the grant draft reflects it. [feedback]
Carried `@c` items above still want a live session — priority is the dzhk-vollantrag M3.1/M1.3 explainer (fires Monday). [feedback]

10-research/grants/cmr-dyspnea-energetics-sachbeihilfe/STATE.md:82 — obese group (BMI≥35) keep/drop tradeoff: adds a difficult group that may fail + opens AFib questions; counter = we study EARLY disease (before AFib). Decide whether to keep.

Proposed for next Fri 14:00: **Topic (Eike 2026-06-11, deferred 2026-06-12): Cooperations** — per-partner goal (data / grant co-app / IP), partner list + benefits + status + push-timing. Fold in new inbound: **David Bode (DHZC)** transmyocardial + peripheral paired-sampling HFpEF cohort. **Deferred from Fri 12 Jun — Eike: "push me to think about this next week, today overloaded by grant submission (Synergy)."**

Work next — ranked

NEXTBad Orburgentself-imposed
  • German consolidation step — pulls Beyond + medneo + Am Turm into one place; local doctor runs the FFM back-office.
  • Generates revenue + de-risks the uni exit; bridges to the Mojácar longevity centre. Next: Eike's concrete move after the Strauss/Adel chats.
  • **Sequencing (Eike 2026-06-07):** do Bad Orb FIRST — asap with VP (next few days).
  • **(2026-06-11) Eike + VP executing directly this weekend (Sat/Sun)** — handled outside the Friday strategy block.
Grantshighhard deadline
  • The funding ladder — €2.5M survival (2031–40) / €10–20M ambition. EN = AI-imaging, VP = trials.
  • Assembly started 2026-06-05 — keep momentum; longlist sequencing + DFG HFpEF Methods rewrite. Submission dates are hard.
  • **(2026-06-11)** New collaboration signal to fold in: **David Bode (DHZC)** — 120-pt transmyocardial + coronary-sinus + femoral paired sampling, invasive hemo + blood gas, HFpEF-rich, banked aliquots; collaboration-only (not a biobank). Strong wet-lab counterpart to leg-stress CMR energetics → hook to **DFG cmr-dyspnea-energetics** + **OLINK**. Otherwise next when time: **work the DFG grant**.

In the queue (not yet discussed)

  1. Cooperations — **(2026-06-10)** Not done — needs a discussion; **Friday 12 Jun at the latest.** ⛔ Eike's meta-answer — per partner, what's the goal (data / grant co-app / IP)?
  2. DZHK HFpEF focus-area (Focus group) — Focus-area co-lead governance + cluster map. Strategic positioning question — how to shape the focus group's direction and Eike/VP's role in it. Scaffolding at 40-infrastructure/research-politics/dzhk-hfpef-focus-area/.
  3. CMR-AI product roadmap (Goethe CVI) — The spinoff product arc on top of the contour engine — what ships, in what order, MDR/FDA sequencing. Overlaps Contours + Imaging Project.
  4. Branding — Eike + VP personal brand — uni prof + scientist + high-end practice + healthy-lifespan, AI-supported, evidence-based. Peter-Attia-style with chair-level research credentials. The brand is the people. Overlaps Bad Orb.
Show actioned — no intervention until trigger (6)
Full Imaging Projectuntil: Gantt needs a review
  • Milestones/timeframes/Gantt worked 2026-06-05; execution now flows via delegations + action points, not strategy.
Contours (CMR-AI segmentation)until: Luisa CorSeg verdict + Raphael nnU-Net baseline land
  • Company sell-blocker #1, but the strategy call (two-track: nnU-Net product + interactive correction; CineMA as pre-segmenter) is made. Execution is Raphael/Luisa. Includes "how to finalize the contours" (Goethe CVI).
MR-vendor strategyuntil: 2026-07-09 (parked 4 weeks — Eike 2026-06-11; resurface then)
  • Get a real alternative / second source away from the majors. Lens: field strength, cost, CMR depth, openness to external tools (own feedback loop + AI-supported scanning). Narrow eval to Canon Vantage Galan 3T + United Imaging 5T vs Siemens/GE baseline — see § MR vendor landscape below.
  • Includes SpinLab hyperpolarizer feasibility on the FFM Prisma (X-nucleus channel + dual-tuned coil + 13C sequences; SPINlab capital ~€1.5–2.5M; QP/pharmacist for human IMP release). Park as real eval if the Würzburg 22-Jun discussion points that way.
  • **(2026-06-07)** Keep the full vendor table; ALSO prepare a SHORT 3T + low-field version with a table of the key questions to start asking vendors. Back burner until the DFG grant is submitted, then activate vendor contact.
  • **(2026-06-11) Eike: low flame — after Grants. Park 4 weeks, do NOT show in the list, then bring back (resurface 2026-07-09).** (Resolves the unclear 06-09 note: this initiative = Eike's list-item #4.)
DZHK Professors — spokesperson roleuntil: after the Eike·Tanja·Ralf kick-off call (resurface to confirm slate + board pitch)
  • **Worked through 2026-06-09 (strategy session closed).** Eike elected speaker 2026-06-01 (term Jun 2026 – May 2028; Tanja Zeller outgoing, Ralf Gilsbach incoming). Strategy: two engines — (A) board-mandated tasks, Eike as router not labourer; (B) uninvited "DZHK view on X" position papers, mixed authorship.
  • Slate to the board: **AI** (Eike leads — flagship, "get invited"), sex & gender, sustainability, + staged healthy-longevity (round 2). Signature instrument = the connection map → offer the board a **portfolio map of the DZHK project database** (links / clusters / parallel-work / opportunities / holes); demo-first (public SE network) then ask for the DB.
  • Full record + pre-call brief → `40-infrastructure/research-politics/dzhk-professors/STATE.md` + `outputs/2026-06-09_pre-call-brief_triumvirate.md`.
trAIectoriesuntil: vehicle-structure decision (revisit when Bad Orb / Mojácar entity structure firms up)
  • New company? The persistent software layer (clinical-case-UI / trAIectory app) that runs on top of both Bad Orb and Mojácar — decide whether it's its own vehicle.
  • **(2026-06-11) Eike: decided — the Trajectories branding/naming was worked through 2026-06-09 / Tue; positioning locked (pending VP weekend sign-off). Folds into Branding execution; off the strategy queue for now.**
Longevity / Mojácar (long-term)until: Eike reactivates (he will bring it up actively)
  • The destination longevity centre (Spain) that Bad Orb funds the path to. Long-horizon; the eventual flagship.
  • **(2026-06-11) Eike: very low flame — park for now; he'll bring it up actively when ready.**

Look at occasionally

→ Task console — every open task with a duration + importance ("I have 20 min, what fits?"), and the open-loops triage queue so notes/sidenotes don't sink.

Periodic reviews (open on the Mac): _morning/STRATEGY.md (Friday topics) · IDEAS.md (parked ideas) · dzhk-hfpef-focus-area/outputs/ (latest cluster map) · INDEX.md §8 (triage decisions pending) · 90-archive/ (anything to revive?)
