ERA-NET ICRAD co-funded Call on infectious animal diseases (Opening date 31st January 2020)
This page announces the first international Call on infectious animal diseases within the framework of the ERA-NET Cofund on International Coordination of Research on Infectious Animal Diseases (ICRAD). ERA-NET ICRAD builds on the successful work of two predecessor ERA-NETs (EMIDA and ANIHWA) and the global network of animal health STAR-IDAZ under Framework Programme 7 (FP7).
The main purpose of this call, co-funded with the European Commission (EC), is to support multi-disciplinary research to improve animal health and welfare, addressing some of the key epidemic and (re)-emerging threats e.g. African Swine Fever and Animal Influenza, and developing novel detection and intervention strategies.

The consortium cannot include more than two partners from one country.
Applicants must respect eligibility rules of the call and the national/regional rules and regulations of their respective national/regional funding organisation as outlined in section 5.1 and Annex I of this document. In some cases additional application to the national/regional organisation is necessary. Applicants are strongly advised to check the national/regional regulations provided in Annex I and to contact their funding contact points.
