Objectiu de la convocatòria
The EU Joint Programme on Neurodegenerative Disease Research (JPND) was established in order to better coordinate research efforts across countries and disciplines to more rapidly find causes, develop cures and identify better ways to care for people with neurodegenerative disease. The JPND Research Strategy, published in 2012, identified research priorities and provided a framework for future investment.
Característiques principals
The aim of the call is to establish a limited number of ambitious, innovative, multi-national and multi-disciplinary collaborative research projects that
  • combine experimental approaches from fundamental, pre-clinical and/or clinical research
  • perform network analyses in different neurodegenerative and/or other chronic diseases to elucidate the underlying common and differing mechanisms between the investigated diseases
  • add value to existing research by analysing diseases across traditional clinical boundaries, technologies and disciplines, thereby gaining deeper understanding of the patho-physiological mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases.

    The following neurodegenerative diseases are included in the call:
  • Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias
  • Parkinson’s disease and PD?related disorders
  • Prion diseases
  • Motor neuron diseases
  • Huntington’s disease
  • Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA)
  • Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
    Cross-disease analysis may solely comprise different neurodegenerative diseases or include other chronic diseases (e.g. chronic mental or physical disorders). However, at least one of the above mentioned neurodegenerative diseases must be addressed.

    Requisits
    Only transnational projects will be funded: each consortium must involve research groups from at least three different countries participating in this call, with each one funded by the corresponding country funding organisation. No more than two research groups from the same country are allowed to join a consortium. text for a complete of JPND countries contributing funding to this call.
    Each proposal must involve a minimum of three and a maximum of six (3-6) research groups (principal investigators) applying for funding. If the consortium involves at least one partner from an underrepresented European country (Czech Republic, Hungary, Luxembourg, Poland, Romania, Slovakia), the maximum number of partners of a consortium is extended to seven partners.
    In addition, external collaborators (e. g., from countries that are not partners in this JPND joint transnational call or research groups from countries that are partners in this JPND joint transnational call but do not apply for funding) may participate in projects. These external collaborators must be able to secure their own funding.

    Whilst applications are to be submitted jointly by groups from different countries, individual research groups will be funded by the JPND funding organisation(s) for their country/region. Eligibility for funding is decided by individual partner organisations (see Annex) and the details of what may or may not be funded are subject to the regulations of the corresponding funding organisations and thus may vary.

    For Spanish applicants: please check the eligibility requirements of the institution and the principal investigator/team members, in the country-specific information sheet.
