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 scientific proposal.
CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR ERC SYNERGY GRANT (ERC-2023-SyG)
The aim is to provide support for a small group of two to four Principal Investigators to jointly address ambitious 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.
EU PARTNERSHIP - CLEAN ENERGY TRANSITION PARTNERSHIP (CETP) - FIRST JOINT CALL 2022 - PREANNOUNCEMENT

Fondazione Cariplo and Fondazione Telethon ETS made an alliance to foster basic research to support projects focused on unknown aspects of rare diseases.
Eligible projects might focus on the following genetic aspects:
Genes associated with rare diseases whose function is completely or largely unknown
One genotype, multiple clinical phenotypes
Genetic modifiers
The maximum total budget allowed for each research project is 250.000 €.
The duration of the proposed project can range from 1 to 2 years.
LONG-TERM EUROPE AFRICA PARTNERSHIP ON RENEWABLE ENERGY (LEAP-RE) COFUND CALL 2022 ON RENEWABLE ENERGY
The thematic priorities addressed by the call are:
Development and integration of renewable energy in the energy system
Planning and modeling future sustainable energy systems
Including society as an important stakeholder
Market, pricing and business models for future sustainable energy systems
