ISIDORE project: call for proposals
ISIDORe can support your research project by providing you free access to their services. Consult our scientific strategy and apply to one of our calls for proposals below.
1. Vector borne diseases: The geographic and host ranges of vector-borne diseases are expanding, mostly due to anthropogenic factors. With rising temperatures and changing weather patterns, the risk of these diseases affecting increasingly large areas of the world will continue to rise, as reflected by the record number cases of dengue (including non-imported ones) and West Nile virus observed in Europe in 2022. The proposal has to be focused on at least one eligible vector-borne pathogen (see below and full full ISIDORe PPP list).
2. Respiratory pathogens: A large number of pathogens target the human respiratory tract, resulting in a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations including life-threatening acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). While serious respiratory infections are predominantly caused by RNA viruses, other types of pathogens can be involved. The modes of transmission of respiratory pathogens often give them a significant epidemic potential. The proposal has to be focused on at least one eligible respiratory pathogen, excluding SARS-CoV-2 (see below and full full ISIDORe PPP list).
3. Other pathogens with epidemic potential: Will the next global infectious threat be an orthopoxvirus, or an enterovirus? Will it be even caused by a known pathogen? Can we be ready for the next pathogen X? The ISIDORe consortium supports scientists with an interest in epidemic-prone pathogens, including pathogen X.

HORIZON EUROPE – ERC STARTING GRANTS
Call for Proposals for ERC Starting Grant (ERC-2024-STG).
The ERC Starting Grants are designed to support excellent Principal Investigators at the career stage at which they are starting their own independent research team or programme. Principal Investigators must demonstrate the ground-breaking nature, ambition, and feasibility of their research proposal.
The Principal Investigators shall have successfully defended their first PhD at least 2 and up to 7 years prior to 1 January 2024. However, this period can be extended beyond 7 years in certain properly documented circumstances.
Starting Grants may be awarded up to a maximum of EUR 1 500 000 for a period of 5 years.
Please note that the deadline for the call ERC-2024-STG has been postponed from 24/10 to 07/11/2023.

Topic 3: Inclusive clinical studies for equitable access to clinical research in Europe.
Topic 4: Establishing novel approaches to improve clinical trials for rare and ultra-rare diseases.
Topic 5: Safe & Sustainable by Design (SSbD) packaging and single use device solutions for healthcare products.
Topic 6: Sustainable circular development and manufacturing of healthcare products and their quantitative impact assessment.

HORIZON EUROPE – ERC SYNERGY GRANTS
Call for proposals for ERC Synergy Grant (ERC-2024-SyG).
The aim is to provide support for a small group of two to four Principal Investigators to jointly addressambitious research problems that could not be addressed by the individual Principal Investigators and their teams working alone.
Synergy projects should enable substantial advances at the frontiers of knowledge, stemming, for example, from the cross-fertilization of scientific fields, from new productive lines of enquiry, or new methods and techniques, including unconventional approaches and investigations at the interface between established disciplines. The transformative research funded by Synergy Grants should have the potential of becoming a benchmark on a global scale.
Please note that the deadline for the call ERC-2024-SyG has been postponed from 15/11/2023 to 15/11/2023.
MSCA Doctoral Networks will implement doctoral programmes, by partnerships of universities, research institutions and research infrastructures, businesses including SMEs, and other socio-economic actors from different countries across Europe and beyond. Type of actions:
