Objectiu de la convocatòria
The aim of the call is to establish a limited number of ambitious, innovative, multi-national and multi-disciplinary collaborative research projects that will add value to existing research by identifying new genetic, epigenetic and environmental risk and protective factors associated with neurodegenerative disorders. The following neurodegenerative diseases are included in the call:
  • Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias
  • Parkinson’s disease and PD related disorders
  • Prion disease
  • Motor neuron diseases
  • Huntington’s disease
  • Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA)
  • Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Studies primarily relevant to other diseases with a neurodegenerative component (e. g. vascular dementias or multiple sclerosis) are not included in the call. Proposals spanning different neurodegenerative disorders are encouraged, although proposals dealing with only one disease may be submitted.
    Excluded from this call are clinical outcome or intervention trials as well as work entirely dedicated to high throughput sequencing to identify novel candidate genes.

    http://www.neurodegenerationresearch.eu/initiatives/2012-joint-transnational-calls/open-calls/risk-factors/
    Requisits
    Project partners must be affiliated to CIBERNED or CIEN
    Joint transnational research proposals may be submitted by
    - research groups working in universities (or other higher education institutions)
    - non-university public research institutes
    - hospitals and other health care settings
    - commercial companies, in particular small and medium-size enterprises.
    The eligibility of the afore-mentioned institutions, together with details of eligible costs (personnel, material, consumables, equipment, travel money, etc.), are subject to the individual administrative requirements of individual funding organisations and may therefore vary. Applicants will need to obtain clarification from the individual funding agencies (see contact details in annex, call text).

    Each proposal must involve a minimum of three and a maximum of ten (3-10) funded research groups. Only transnational projects will be funded: each consortium must involve groups from at least three different countries of the funding organisations participating in this call (see list in call text). Applicants are therefore strongly advised to contact their national/regional funding organisation and confirm eligibility before participating in an application (see country specific information on the JPND website (http://www.neurodegenerationresearch.eu).
    Dotació
    Funding and eligible costs depend on the national regulations.
    For Spanish institutions, €200,000 if the institution is the coordinator, € 100,000 if the institution is not the coordinator.
    Durada
