Preannouncement - 2025 Joint Transnational Call for Proposals on Rare Disease Therapies

Published on | 2 months ago

Programmes Health  

The European Partnership on Rare Diseases (ERDERA) has preannounced its first Joint Transnational Call for Proposals on Rare Disease Therapies. The content of the preannouncement may be subject to change.

The call will formally open on 10 December and will have a two-stage submission process with deadline for pre-proposals in February 2025 and full proposal deadline in July 2025.

Research Foundation Flanders (FWO) participates in this call. More information on available funding for researchers based in Flanders and on who can apply & how will become available on the FWO website after official opening of the call.

The primary objective of the call is to support interdisciplinary, transnational collaborations that leverage complementary expertise to develop new therapies for rare diseases. Research projects should focus on pre-clinical studies involving small molecules or biologicals. This could include the development of novel therapies, biomarkers for therapy efficiency, or replication of pre-clinical studies to validate findings.

More information is available on the ERDERA website.

BEAT-AF - Ground-Breaking Electroporation-based intervention for Atrial Fibrillation treatment

The Horizon2020 project BEAT-AF brings together 9 European renowned clinical centres in France, Belgium, Czechia, Germany and Austria. Together, the consortium strives to revolutionize Atrial Fibrillation (AF) treatment through catheter ablation and contribute to decrease the huge burden of AF in Europe. The BEAT-AF project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2026. The department of electrophysiology of the AZ Sint-Jan Hospital in Bruges is partner in the project and has so far contributed to the pre-clinical development, the first in man studies and first registries of the revolutionary AF treatment put forward by the consortium. The first pilot studies show that the treatment is safe, effective and efficient.
