Objectiu de la convocatòria
The Joint Programming of the European Union aims to pool national research efforts in order to make better use of Europe’s public R&D resources and to tackle common European challenges more effectively.
The primary aim of the third joint call of JPIAMR is to combine the resources, infrastructures, and research strengths of multiple countries in order to address transmission of antibiotic resistance following a ‘One Health Approach’. The goal is to foster multinational research collaborations to add value to and to build upon the research conducted independently at national level and to work together to improve the control of resistant bacterial infections of clinical and/or veterinary importance only.
Característiques principals
Topics:

  • To understand the acquisition, persistence/ retention, and transmission of resistant organisms and resistance genes, research should investigate:
    - Selection of resistance and its transmission between individuals and between human and non-human sources
    - The success of clones, organisms, and resistance patterns and the role of different genetic elements.
    - The fitness of the resistant bacteria in clinical, community, veterinary, and environmental settings.

  • In order to identify and target better prevention measures and management practices to control resistance, research in the following areas are needed:
    - Quantitative multilevel modelling to understand the dissemination of AMR between different environments (here the “environment” is seen in its broadest sense from the host to man-made settings and natural environments)
    - Risk assessment studies to estimate which transmission pathways from the environment (indoor and outdoor) and/or animals to humans are the most important to control in order to minimise the transfer of resistant organisms.
    - Explore potential interventions and mitigation strategies, including new strategies, which minimise the emergence, transmission, and/or exposure risk of resistance in clinical, veterinary, community and environmental settings in a cost-effective, sustainable way.

    Requisits
    Applicants must adhere to the specific regulations of the national funding organisations. Each transnational consortium submitting a proposal must involve:
  • a minimum of three (3) eligible partners from three (3) different countries participating in the call
  • a maximum of six (6) project participants
  • a maximum of two (2) project participants funded by the same funding organisation.
  • Project participants not eligible to be funded (e.g. from non-funding countries or not fundable according to national/regional regulations of the participating funding countries) may be involved in projects if they secure their own funding and if their expertise is indispensable for reaching the objectives. However, the maximum number of six participants may not be exceeded, unless partners from under-represented countries are included (see below). The consortia should always consist of a majority of funded project participants.
  • Project participants not eligible to be funded cannot be consortium coordinators and must accept all JPIAMR rules and guidelines just as funded members.
  • Consortia including partners from countries that are to date underrepresented in the JPIAMR funding scheme may increase the total number of partners to 7. (The underrepresented countries are Poland, and Latvia.
