Challenge programme 2027

For the application round of 2027, the Challenge Programme seeks to support outstanding research collaborations working within one of four selected themes. Up to DKK 600 million (EUR 80 million) will be awarded for grants of DKK 30 - 75 million (ca. EUR 4 - 10 million) for projects of 6 years duration.

Theme 1: Advancing Next Generation AMR Diagnostics for Lower Respiratory Tract Infections

The specific challenge of this theme is to seed proof-of-concept research that will enable the development of rapid, minimally invasive and affordable testing for LRTI at the point-of-care in global settings.
