The JPIAMR Call 2022

The National Science Centre (NCN), together with the JPIAMR , is launching a call for international research projects on antimicrobial resistance. Proposals may be submitted by international research consortia composed of at least 3 research teams from at least 3 different countries participating in the call, with at least 2 from the EU member states or associated countries. The principal investigator of the Polish research team must hold at least a PhD degree.

The call for proposals is addressed in particular to the research teams applying the One Health approach to support research into antimicrobial interventions based on the improvement of the efficacy, specificity, delivery, combination and/or repurposing of drugs and plant protection agents to treat bacterial or fungal infections.

27 organisations from 18 countries will participate in the call: Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Spain, Israel, Canada, Lithuania, Latvia, Moldova, Germany, Poland, Switzerland, Sweden, Hungary, United Kingdom and Italy. The participation of the partners from low and middle income countries (LMIC) will be financed by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA).

The estimated call budget is approx. EUR 17 million. The Polish research teams participating in the call will be funded by the National Science Centre (NCN), which has allocated EUR 500,000 for that purpose.
