Cet appel à candidatures a pour objectif de fédérer au sein d’un consortium des équipes de recherche de disciplines et de compétences différentes, autour de la thématique des causes et des origines des cancers pédiatriques. En effet, une coopération interdisciplinaire apparaît nécessaire afin de définir collectivement un programme de recherche intégré, permettant de lever des verrous conceptuels relatifs à cette thématique.
Cet appel à projets « Recherche en cancérologie pédiatrique : apports des approches interdisciplinaires » a pour objectif de faire émerger des projets interdisciplinaires ambitieux, d’une durée de 36 mois.
Il permettra le développement d’approches originales en associant obligatoirement et uniquement deux équipes disposant de compétences scientifiques différentes. Cet AAC est donc ouvert à l’ensemble des disciplines sans exception, de la recherche fondamentale et translationnelle :
Proposals should focus on lessons learnt: they should i) address how to mitigate social and economic impacts of the outbreak response related to health systems; ii) identify non-intended consequences of epidemic-control decisions; and iii) provide answers to social, including gendered, dynamics of the outbreak and the related public health response.
Specific Challenge:
This call aims to support policy in reducing inequality in the face of demographic change. The call seeks proposals for research which will improve our understanding of how demographic change is altering the implicit contract between generations and how policy can ensure that change reduces inequality instead of increasing it. Specifically, the Call deals with three aspects of inequality:
Proposals should focus on lessons learnt: they should i) address how to mitigate social and economic impacts of the outbreak response related to health systems; ii) identify non-intended consequences of epidemic-control decisions; and iii) provide answers to social, including gendered, dynamics of the outbreak and the related public health response.
The funding available is intended to enable researchers to engage a variety of relevant stakeholders with their research, to embed their work into policy and practice, and to work with relevant communities to realise the full potential benefits of their research. The Fellowships will therefore be inherently impact-focussed and cannot be used to conduct substantial new research. For the purpose of this pilot call the focus is on the UK context, whilst recognising the potential cross-cultural value of internationally collaborative and connected research.
Research Support Grants are offered in the autumn and spring rounds to individuals already engaged in research involving the study of British art or architectural history or British visual culture.
A Research Support Grant is an award of up to £2,000 towards the expenses incurred in visiting collections, libraries, archives or historic sites within the United Kingdom or abroad for research purposes.
