Bandi di ricerca

EURAMET operates a series of research programmes that enable our members to collaborate with each other and with industry and academia, to solve key challenges of metrological interest. Acknowledging the Call for needs of February 2022, EURAMET announces the launch of Stage 2 of the 2022 Call for the following topic areas within the European Partnership on Metrology: - Metrology support for the Health; - Integrated European Metrology; - Metrology support for Digital Transformation; - Metrology support for Regulation and Standards; - Research Potential;

Standard Action Projects (SAPs) for circular economy and quality of life, nature and biodiversity, climatechange mitigation and adaptation sub-programmes.

Nell'ambito delle finalità generali del Progetto AGER, le progettualità a valere su questo bando dovrnno concentrarsi sulle complesse interazioni tra colture di pieno campo e suolo, nell'intento di incrementarne la salute e la fertilità. In questo contesto il bando riserva particolare interesse al microrganismi dal suolo e alla valutazione della loro capacità di efficientare l'utilizzo dell'acqua e dei nutrienti. Le proposte, pertanto, dovranno approfondire lo studio di consorzi microbici, concentrandosi sull'analisi dell sinergie esistenti tra microrganismi presenti nel consorzio, al fine di mettere a punto modelli applicativi specifici per coltura/gruppi di colture particolarmente rilevanti nel panorama produttivo nazionale. Le progettualità potranno prevedere la caratterizzazione di nuovi microrganismi oppure l'utilizzo di collezzioni già caratterizzate.

L'avviso prevedere 3 misur rivolt a giovani ricercatori che abbiano completato il PhD da 2 a 7 anni. Le 3 misure sono rivolte a: - Vincitori di ERC Starting con progetto in corso e Host Institution all'estero - Vincitori di MSCA Individual fellowship e Postdoctoral Fellowship con progetto concluso dopo il giorno11/10/2021 - Titolari di Seal of Excellence su proposte MSCA Individual fellowship e Postdoctoral Fellowship sulle Call 2020 e 2021.

The following typs of rsearch will be considred in-scope: - Basic science, pre-clinical research and clinical rsearch that aligns with the in-scope research topics. - Animal experimentation related to human biology. - Physiological, cellular, molecular and traslational research. Individual projcts requsting up to USD $250,000 will be considered.

The objective of PFs is to support researchers’ careers and foster excellence in research. The Postdoctoral Fellowships action targets researchers holding a PhD who wish to carry out their research activities abroad, acquire new skills and develop their careers. PFs help researchers gain experience in other countries, disciplines and non-academic sectors.

The call covers the following 6 topics: - EIC Pathfinder Challenge: Mid to long term and systems integrated energy storage; - EIC Pathfinder Challenge: DNA-based digital data storage; - EIC Pathfinder Challenge: Cardiogenomics; - EIC Pathfinder Challenge: Towards the Healthcare Continuum: technologies to support a radical shift from episodic to continuous healthcare; - EIC Pathfinder Challenge: Carbon dioxide and Nitrogen management and valorisation; - EIC Pathfinder Challenge: Alternative approaches to Quantum Information Processing, Communication, and Sensing;

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.

The call covers the following 8 topics : - Innovative renewable energy carrier production for heating from renewable energies - Digital solutions for defining synergies in international renewable energy value chains - Renewable energy carriers from variable renewable electricity surplus and carbon emissions fromenergy consuming sectors - AU-EU Energy System Modelling - Direct renewable energy integration into process energy demands of the chemical industry - Technological interfaces between solar fuel technologies and other renewables - Renewable energy incorporation in agriculture and forestry - Demonstration of complete value chains for advanced biofuel and non-biological renewable fuelproduction

The call is targeted to thematic projects focused on the “Smarter and Greener Mediterranean” Programme priorities and their related specific objectives: Smarter Mediterranean: - “Developing and enhancing research and innovation capacities and the uptake of advanced technologies” Greener Mediterranean: -“Promoting the transition to a circular and resource-efficient economy”; - “Promoting climate change adaptation and disaster risk prevention, resilience, taking into account eco-system-based approaches”; - “Enhancing protection and conservation of nature, biodiversity and green infrastructure including in urban areas and reducing all forms of pollution”;

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.

Proposals under this Action should contribute to the following expected impacts: - Strengthen Europe's human capital base in R&I by training highly-skilled doctoral candidates, - Improve the attractiveness of researchers’ careers notably through better working and employment conditions of doctoral candidates in Europe - Enhance talent and knowledge circulation across the R&I landscape, through inter-sectoral, interdisciplinary and international mobility - Increase Europe's attractiveness as a leading research destination - Enhance the quality of R&I contributing to Europe's sustainable competitiveness - Establish sustainable collaboration between academic and non-academic organisations - Foster the culture of open science, innovation and entrepreneurship
