Past calls for proposals
Call for projects – FLASH: Pox virus in farmed ruminants
France, like Europe, is facing the emergence on its territory of highly contagious animal viral diseases caused by poxviruses, mainly affecting ruminant livestocks. Recent outbreaks, such as lumpy skin disease in cattle, have revealed the vulnerability of livestock systems and highlighted the need for the rapid availability of robust scientific knowledge and operational tools to anticipate, monitor and control these health crises, in order to limit their economic and social impacts.
Call for proposals : ACCESS ERC STARTING GRANTS 2026
The Access ERC 2026 call is open exclusively to disciplines in the Social Sciences and Humanities.
Tremplin – ERC Consolidator Grant (T-ERC CoG) 2026
Designed to improve France’s success rate in European Research Council (ERC) calls, Tremplin-ERC (T-ERC) is a funding instrument set up by ANR as part of its Work Programme 2026. T-ERC is open to all ERC research disciplines (LS, PE, SH).
Call for proposals : Science avec et pour la société : Co-construire les politiques publiques par l’expertise scientifique (SAPS - CPPE 2026)
Originally intended to provide objective insight into issues and help decision-makers make informed choices, scientific expertise long relied on a clear separation between researchers — as knowledge producers — and public institutions responsible for action. These expert assessments, commissioned by public authorities, produce reports summarizing current knowledge on a given issue, territory, or population, often accompanied by syntheses for non-specialists and sometimes recommendations.
Quantum Technologies: QuantERA’s 5th Call for proposals
The QuantERA III consortium, coordinated by the National Science Centre (NCN), and with the ANR as one of its partners, is launching a new call for proposals to fund transnational research projects in Quantum Sciences and Technologies, in support to the actions of the Quantum Technologies Flagship. Through this Call, the QuantERA III consortium aims at stimulating and intensifying research and innovation in the field of Quantum Technologies, contributing to the Strategic Research and Industry Agenda of the European Quantum Technology community. The call will gather 34 funding organisations, including the ANR, in 29 countries.
Tremplin – ERC Starting Grant (T-ERC StG) 2025
Designed to improve France’s success rate in European Research Council (ERC) calls, Tremplin-ERC (T-ERC) is a funding instrument set up by ANR as part of its Work Programme 2025. T-ERC is open to all ERC research disciplines (LS, PE, SH).
PEPR Cell-ID : "Identités et destins cellulaires" - Appel à projets - 2025
Les cancers pédiatriques représentent la première cause de mortalité liée à une maladie chez les enfants en Europe, responsables de 20 % des décès après la période néonatale. De plus, deux tiers des survivants subissent des effets à long terme des traitements, souvent suffisamment sévères pour altérer la qualité de vie quotidienne et limiter la participation socioéconomique d’au moins la moitié d’entre eux. Au-delà de leur fardeau sanitaire élevé, les cancers pédiatriques du cerveau partagent plusieurs caractéristiques majeures : (i) ils prennent probablement racine dans des erreurs précoces de décisions de destinée cellulaire, se traduisant par des dérèglements de lignage ; (ii) ils apparaissent vraisemblablement durant des fenêtres de développement embryonnaire spécifiques, alors que le système immunitaire est encore immature ; (iii) ils impliquent à la fois des altérations génétiques et épigénétiques ; et (iv) les composants de la chromatine y jouent un rôle central.
Call for research projects on Charcot disease – ALS
Charcot's disease, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is a neurodegenerative disease caused by the progressive degeneration of the central and peripheral motor neurons in the brainstem and spinal cord that control voluntary muscles. It is the most common of the rare diseases, with 4 new cases diagnosed each day in France. Life expectancy is 3 to 5 years after the onset of the first symptoms, and to date, there is no cure available.
Specific support for Defence Projects and Innovation, ASTRID thematic call for proposals : RESISTANCE
The National Research Agency is launching, with the Defence Innovation Agency (AID) as partner, the call for projects ASTRID Resistance. This program is co-funded by AID and is hosted by ANR, which ensures its implementation.
2d edition of the Franco-Czech bilateral call for nuclear projects - ANR TACR
France and the Czech Republic have been key players in the European Nuclear Alliance, leading the way in reforming the electricity market. Both governments aim to enhance these collaborations, especially in research cooperation. The French and Czech governments wish to strengthen these ties, particularly through cooperation in the field of research.
