Purpose

The objective of this call is to broadly promote Danish clinical or translational research of high international level. The research should involve patients/humans and/or clinical practice, diagnostic or therapeutic methods, but can also involve established animal models.

Eligibility

The research activities applied for must be anchored at a university, hospital or other non-profit research institution in Denmark.

Only principal investigators are eligible to apply.

Applications from Master students, Ph.D. students and postdocs will not be taken into consideration.

Funding

A total of up to DKK 76 million is available for projects lasting from 1-3 years.

Projects of up to DKK 4,400,000 million can be applied for with a yearly maximum budget of DKK 1,480,000 million.

Strategic focused theme

DKK 11 million are earmarked for projects within the strategic focused theme ‘Interactions between infectious diseases and cardiometabolic diseases’.

In this application round there will be special emphasis on research projects focused on or related to novel clinical and translational research aimed at improving our understanding of the dual-burden and interactions between IDs and CMDs.

Infectious diseases (ID) and cardiometabolic diseases (CMD) are two major global health challenges that affect millions of people every year. While these are distinct types of disease, there is growing evidence that they interact in complex ways, and that these interactions influence the risk, severity, and prognosis of both types of disease.

If you wish your application to be considered for this initiative, you should clearly indicate this in your application by ticking the box ‘IDs and CMDs’ found under the tab Proposal.

Application process

The application must be completed and submitted using the foundation’s electronic application system, using the link “Send application”. Link is found at the top of the page and will be visible when the call opens.
