  • The applicants must submit a new and original research project that has not yet been launched.

    For multi-centre applications, the project group must consist of:

    • a project coordinator (this may or may not be one of the principal investigators), who has been identified by the participating institutions for coordinating the overall project.
  • Successful institutions are excluded from applying in the upcoming two application rounds (24 months).

For multi-centric project groups, the majority of the ECCO Pioneer Award applicants must be from an ECCO Country Member; all applications that include non-European participating institutions must justify the selection of these institutions in the letter of intent.
