IARC Summer School 2023 Call for Applications is Open

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) is pleased to announce that it is now accepting applications for the IARC Summer School 2023, for two modules: "Introduction to Cancer Epidemiology" and "Implementing Cancer Prevention and Early Detection".
The IARC Summer School 2023 provides the opportunity to stimulate cancer research, improve scientific knowledge, and develop collaborations among researchers worldwide. Building on past successful IARC Summer Schools, the two modules in 2023 will be delivered as blended training programmes, combining online learning with virtual and in-person classes. The hybrid format will offer the best of remote learning and the unmatched value of relationships formed during face-to-face events and their effect on boosting network-building and future collaborations.
Those who want to attend the summer school module on "Implementing Cancer Prevention and Early Detection" should first take the self-paced course on cancer prevention and early detection, which is available on the IARC Learning portal. This self-paced learning path will take participants through various resources, which cover the basic concepts and principles related to cancer prevention and early detection. See the links below for more information.

Horizon Europe – ERC Proof of Concept Grant
(ERC-2023-POC)

Horizon Europe – ERC Proof of Concept Grant (ERC-2023-POC)
The ERC Proof of Concept Grants aim at facilitating exploration of the commercial and social innovation potential of ERC funded research, by funding further work (i.e. activities which were not scheduled to be funded by the original ERC frontier research grant) to verify the innovation potential of ideas arising from ERC funded projects. Proof of Concept Grants are therefore on offer only to Principal Investigators whose proposals draw substantially on their ERC funded research.

The financial contribution will be awarded as a lump sum of EUR 150 000 for a period of 18 months. The ERC expects that, normally, proof of concept activities should be completed within 12 months. However, to allow for those projects that require more preparation time, the grant agreements will be signed for 18 months. Extensions of the duration of proof of concept projects may be granted only exceptionally.The lump sum will cover the beneficiaries' direct and indirect eligible costs for the project: if the project is implemented properly, the amounts will be paid regardless of the costs actually incurred. The lump sum has been designed to cover the beneficiaries’ personnel costs, subcontracting, purchase costs, other cost categories, and indirect costs.

All Principal Investigators in an ongoing ERC main grant or in a ERC main grant that has ended less than 12 months before 1 January 2023, are eligible to apply for an ERC Proof of Concept Grant.

For further information please see the ERC Work Programme 2023.

Horizon Europe – ERC Consolidator Grant
(ERC-2023-COG)

The ERC Consolidator Grants are designed to support excellent Principal Investigators at the career stage at which they may still be consolidating their own independent research team or programme. Principal Investigators must demonstrate the ground-breaking nature, ambition and feasibility of their scientific proposal.
Consolidator Grants may be awarded up to a maximum of EUR 2 000 000 for a period of 5 years. The maximum size of the grants is reduced pro rata temporis for projects of a shorter duration. (This does not apply to ongoing projects).
The Principal Investigators shall have been awarded their first PhD at least 7 and up to 12 years prior to 1 January 2023. Cut-off dates: PhD awarded from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2015 (inclusive).

Call for Proposals 2023 : «Natural History Studies addressing unmet needs in Rare Diseases”
The objective of this call is to conduct efficient, innovative and high-quality natural history studies which will facilitate understanding of the disease’s or group of disorders’ progression throughout the lifespan of a patient. The goal of these studies is to collect and analyze comprehensive patient data to define targets for future therapies, taking into consideration innovation, safety, and efficacy.

Research proposals should cover at least one of the following areas:
1-   Estimation of disease prevalence;
2-  Identification of biomarkers/companions for the diagnosis/prognosis of a RD;
3-   Identification of biomarkers/indicators/predictors of a rare disease or group of disorders (e.g. having the same aetiology) onset/progression (including collection of genetic, physiological, environmental data or variables….);
4-   Identification of relevant endpoints for future studies that include potential biomarkers, querying patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and quality-of-life measures;
5-   Identification of biomarkers/variables for therapeutic approaches (pharmacology, drug repurposing, gene therapy, RNA therapy, cell therapy, medical devices…).
