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).
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.
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.
France 2030 - PEPR "SVA : Sélection Végétale Avancée" - Appel à projets 2025
Lancé le 1er mars 2024, le programme national de recherche (PEPR) « Sélection végétale avancée pour faire face au dérèglement climatique et assurer la transition agroécologique » (SVA) est une des mesures de la stratégie d’accélération SADEA (Systèmes Agricoles Durables et Équipements Agricoles contribuant à la transition écologique) de France 2030. Piloté par INRAE, il est doté d’un budget de 30 millions d’euros pour une durée de huit ans (2023-2031). Ce programme a pour objectif d’évaluer la contribution de l’édition des génomes pour accompagner la transition agroécologique dans un contexte d’adaptation au dérèglement climatique.
Call for research projects Ecophyto Maturation - ECOM 2025
To contribute to achieving the goals of the Ecophyto 2030 Strategy by building on research outcomes, the Ministries responsible for research (MESR), agriculture (MASAF), ecological transition (MTEECPR), and health (MSA) are launching the fourth edition of the "Ecophyto Maturation" (ECOM) call for projects. Managed by the ANR and co-financed by the OFB, this programme promotes the emergence of innovative, operational, and deployable solutions to reduce the use and impact of pesticides.
Appel à projets "SOLU-BIOD : Vers une intégration systémique des Solutions fondées sur la Nature"
Cet appel à projets du PEPR "Solutions fondées sur la Nature (SfN)" (Solu-Biod) vise à stimuler la recherche interdisciplinaire sur une approche innovante pour répondre aux défis environnementaux et sociétaux actuels. Le programme s'articule autour de quatre axes complémentaires : fondements biologiques et éco-évolutifs ; gouvernance et dynamiques sociales ; évaluation et transformation des pratiques ; modélisation intégrative.
2025 Bilateral collaboration JST-ANR based on CREST program
The signing of the bilateral agreement between the ANR and the JST (Japanese science and technology agency) for the promotion of scientific and technological cooperation has resulted in the opening up of the emblematic Japanese CREST programme (Core Research for Evolutionary Science and Technology) to the participation of French teams in Japanese projects. French teams are invited to participate in research projects in collaboration with one or more Japanese teams concerning one of the two following priority research areas:
French Indian call for joint research and innovation project proposals in « Green Hydrogen Innovations for Sustainable Energy Solutions » (GH2SES)
On 18 January 2024, at the second meeting of the Indo-French Joint Committee for Science and Technology (JCST) in Delhi, it was agreed that the French National Research Agency (ANR) and the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India would set up co-funded calls for research projects proposals to catalyse renewed and strengthened scientific cooperation between France and India.
PEPR SPLEEN - Appel à Manifestation d’Intérêt – 2025
La recherche et développement (R&D) a un rôle majeur à jouer pour soutenir la décarbonation de l’industrie française et le développement de filières industrielles nationales de solutions de décarbonation. C’est un enjeu fondamental lorsque l’on sait que l’industrie est responsable d’environ 20 % des émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) sur le territoire national. La Stratégie Nationale Bas Carbone (SNBC) vise un objectif de réduction des émissions de GES industrielles de 35 % d’ici 2030 et de 81 % d’ici 2050 par rapport à 2015.
Joint call "Sargassum III"
Since 2011, the coastal regions of the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico have been confronted with massive strandings of Sargassum seaweed, the scale and persistence of which stand out from previous waves. The degradation of the seaweed causes significant releases of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide, leading to beach closures and the evacuation of coastal populations, thus confronting the regions concerned with a critical health, environmental and economic situation.
