Call
Detailed Call Description
The following specific objectives have been identified for this Challenge:
- to identify single or multiple gene variants of high biological significance or other key molecules associated with the CVDs that would allow for accurate stratification of patients and guide the physician in their clinical management and monitoring of these CVDs;
- to identify novel targets based on these variants for specific CVD indication(s) that would allow for the development of first in class therapies for the same indication; to seek for novel technological solutions that could contribute to the development and acceleration of first in class therapies for major CVD conditions for which no effective treatments are currently available.
Financing percentage by EU or other bodies / Level of Subsidy or Loan
The total indicative budget of the present call is € 167 000 000 which is expected to be allocated in approximately equal shares across the challenges. The EIC considers proposals with an EU contribution of up to € 4 000 000 as appropriate.
